I found this on Wikipedia: AquAdvantage salmon
Production
AquaAdvantage built a 100-ton/year aquaculture facility in landlocked highlands in Panama, a fraction of the 230,000 ton global output of farmed Atlantic salmon.
Concerns
Aquaculture that uses conventionally bred salmon, mostly Atlantic salmon, cultivates the fish in net pens. In North America, this occurs mostly in coastal waters off Washington State, British Columbia and Maine. However, the application for FDA approval of AquAdvantage salmon specified land-based tank cultivation with no ocean involvement.
Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Aldi, and other grocery stores throughout the country have announced that they would not offer AquAdvantage.
