 While fish farms cause many of the same problems as factory farms on land – waste, pesticides, antibiotics, parasites, and disease – the issues are magnified because of the immediate contamination of the surrounding ocean water. There is also the problem of farmed fish escaping into the wild when nets fail. Along with the positive aspects of aquaculture come some negative ones. Fish farms can impact wild fish populations by transferring disease and parasites to migrating fish. Aquaculture can also pollute water systems with excess nutrients and fecal matter due to the large numbers and concentrations of farmed fish There are two main types of aquaculture—marine and freshwater.
