Zebra Danio
Not consumed — a hardy ornamental aquarium fish notable for its horizontal blue-silver stripes and active schooling behavior; also a widely used laboratory model organism.
Species Overview
Sockeye Salmon
The sockeye salmon is famous for turning bright red during its upstream spawning migration. Its deep-red flesh is the richest in omega-3 fatty acids of all Pacific salmon species, making it the most valuable commercially.
Zebra Danio
The zebrafish is a small cyprinid native to South Asia's freshwater streams. Its distinctive blue-and-gold horizontal stripes and hardy nature make it a popular aquarium fish. It is also the most widely used vertebrate model organism in genetic research.
