Fish Tasting

>>Shaun: I'm Shaun, I'm doing a master's in Biodiversity and Conservation, here at Bournemouth University at Talbot campus I am looking into sustainability of fish and whether or not more sustainable but less traditional types of fish are palatable to the general consumer in Britain today and I'm basically giving the options of sampling three different types of fish so they can tell me what they think of it and how they taste and how they appeal to them people tend to buy a fish purely because they are familiar it rather than evaluate it for how it is as a marketable product and if they like it or not. Thing is they dont know what fish they are sampling really until the end of the experiment so hopefully I get some unbiased responses. More traditional types of fish that are on the market in britain today, primarily salmon and trout are carivorous species, now to feed carnivorous species of fish in farms, you would actually use feed pellets derived from wild fish meat and oils so therefore you are pretty much taking wild fish feeding it to farm fish, say you take 4kg of wild fish you are only really going to get 1kg of farm fish out of it, therefore that is extremely unsustainable so basically what I am proposing overall throughout my project is why not use more sustainable types of fish, fish that really dont need to eat other fish in order to produce a good crop a good sustainable amount of fish product, so basically I am looking into planktivorous species of fish and whether or not they can be farmed, they can be produced in Britain and if there is a market for them
