Stripedbass are the easiest of hatchery fish to propagate as is what they eat as fry as is what cleans up after them in the hatcheries.

The stripedbass hatcheries/farms require nothing from the ocean.

Not the greatest statement on your behalf.

there are places down south
ponds to be more specific
that have porous mud banks
chalk full of crawdads/crayfish
that are basically unwanted pests
and would be a perfect food for
farm raised striped bass.

That being said... you have to realize
that even beef cattle are being fed fish protein
[you already know the company that's doing it.]
supplements in a dry form after the oil
has been extracted for vitamin D supplements.

KRILL oil is the much better alternative for that.

I did say fish farming, not striped bass farming. I know nothing about Striped Bass farming. I guess I was quoting from a tuna fish show I watched last year
