Fish farming can harm biodiversity through eutrophication from leaked feed, accidental trapping and death of predators, and the spread of parasites from the nets.
Como a piscicultura pode afetar a biodiversidade? A comida adicionada à fazenda pode vazar para a água aberta e causar eutrofização. Predadores podem ficar presos nas redes e morrer. São áreas de reprodução de parasitas que podem sair das redes e entrar na água aberta.

| Back | The food added to the farm can leak into the open water and cause eutrophication. Predators can get stuck in the nets and die. They are breeding grounds for parasites which can get out of the nets and into the open water. |
