Maybe this information is out of date, but these are the issues I was referencing:
Anchovies, sardines and other palm-sized, schooling fish are caught in the ocean and processed into fishmeal and oil to feed to other fishes and crustaceans that are raised in aquatic farms around the world.

Every year, millions of tons of wild fish, like sardines and anchovies, are caught and processed into fishmeal and fish oil, which is used to make feed for farm-raised species.

- GordonS 6y agoIt's true that a lot of wild catch still goes towards fishmeal; my point was simply that things are improving a lot there, at least for salmon (I presume it's the case for other species too, but I don't know that).
