A fish farmer feeds food pellets to red hybrid tilapia. The fish are raised in floating fish pens at a farm by a river in Thailand.

Red hybrid tilapia converge at the surface of a floating pen, waiting to be fed at a fish farm in Thailand.

A large number of red hybrid tilapia feed on food pellets, in a crowded floating pen at a fish farm in Thailand. A worker in the background tosses a handful of pellets into the water.

A large group of red hybrid tilapia wait to be fed in a densely crowded floating pen at a fish farm in Thailand. Overcrowding is common problem in aquaculture, which can affect the health of the fish being raised.

Workers pick up sedated red hybrid tilapia from a floating pen to be weighed and sorted during the harvest at a fish farm in Thailand. Clove oil is a fast acting sedative that is used to calm fish prior to the harvest, making it easier for workers to handle the fish and minimize damage to them from too much struggling.

Workers at a fish farm in Thailand weigh and pack fresh red hybrid tilapia that have recently been slaughtered by "live chilling".

Workers sort sedated red hybrid tilapia during the harvest at a fish farm in Thailand. Those fish large enough to be sold are tossed into plastic drums, while the smaller fish are tossed back into floating pens. To deliver to certain supermarket chains, the weight and condition of the fish is strictly regulated, thus sedative is regularly used during the harvest to reduce damage to the fish from their struggling.

A worker tosses a large scoop of food pellets into the floating pen at a red hybrid tilapia farm in Thailand.

A worker uses a dip net to scoop up a group of juvenile tilapia which become piled within the net as they are lifted out of a transportation tank. The fish will be transferred to a mobile floating cage which will be used to relocate the animals to an Indonesian fish farm in the area, where they will raised until they reach market-size.

Live tilapia slowly suffocate in a basket at an Indonesian fish slaughterhouse. A worker uses a wooden stick to strike and kill the fish as part of the slaughtering process.

A close-up view at surface level of the white and decaying bodies of several dead tilapia float on the surface water of a floating cage at an Indonesian fish farm. The dead tilapia are fed as food to the catfish being raised on the same farm.

A close-up underwater view of a crowded group of tilapia on an Indonesian fish farm, about to be harvested from the floating cage they live in. Surrounding the fish is a net used to confine the fish in a small area so that they can be transferred to another enclosure.

A view from above as a worker uses a dip net to deposit juvenile tilapia into a mobile floating cage. The fish have been removed from a transportation tank and are being transferred to a nearby Indonesian fish farm.
