It works! Lumpfish can significantly lower sea lice infestation in large-scale salmon farming [PDF]
Biology Open, 2018 To assess the efficacy of lumpfish grazing on attached sea lice on Atlantic salmon, six large-scale sea cages, (130 m circumference, 37,688 m3 volume) each stocked with approximately 200,000 salmon 0+ smolts, were stocked with a 4, 6 and 8% density (8000,
