What other fish do you recommend?
1 comments

Anchovy, Herring, any fish that is not at the top of the food chain. Salmon is a predator, it's like eating tigers.
Unlike tigers, salmon are definitely not at the top of the food chain.

are they farmable on industrial scale to feed humanity?

What do you think salmon eat?

For every 1 kg of salmon waten by a person 5-10 KG of anchovy or other fish is eaten by salmon.

I am not sure that fish(like very small anchovy) is in grade to effectively feed humans.
that's likely larger and more mature presorted units. Salmon can eat smaller ones. You can tell from the price that those cost more than actual salmon.

I am not expert, I am just speculating that if you dig into details, picture can be very different.

not. We can't breed this so is a non-solution. Keeping them alive in aquariums is very difficult.
Irrelevant, because we're not seeking to replace such a staple in the first place, as was already previously stated.
I didn't get who are those "we" and where it was stated and by who, and why that who is an absolute authority in this discussion that any other opinions are labeled as "irrelevant"
