Making the switch? Try these alternatives to intensively farmed salmon.

April 3, 2025

Some fish farms have raised serious environmental concerns—particularly when non-native species are grown in conditions that affect surrounding ecosystems and native wildlife. If you’d like to support fishers and farmers who use practices with a lighter touch on our oceans, consider these delicious, more sustainable options.

Infinity Blue Barramundi produce 100% saltwater QLD large barramundi or whole plate sized springwater barramundi from our Victorian farm.

Barramundi is a local Australian species well-suited to our climate and waters. It’s a versatile fish—just as easy to cook as salmon—and readily available at many supermarkets and fishmongers. Barramundi farming in Australia often takes place in land-based tanks or ponds, reducing the risk of disease transfer to wild populations. Some farms even recycle their water to minimize waste and impact on the environment. If you’re looking for a tasty, responsible swap for salmon, barramundi is an excellent choice.

Grown in pristine water conditions, our Barramundi is a delicious fish with firm, white succulent flesh; the result of passionately combining all-natural ingredients, gentle fish handling practices and a deep understanding of Barramundi.

In supporting a passion for fine food and creativity in the kitchen, Infinity Blue is dedicated to supplying the freshest, highest-quality Barramundi. This is made possible thanks to our eastern seaboard farms and short supply chain. Our farm locations have been hand-picked, with each province imparting unique eating qualities onto the fish.

Free of antibiotics, hormones, colourants and whitening agents, our Barramundi are nurtured in the purest of water with premium feed and truly sustainable farming practices – Infinity Blue is simply a restaurant favourite.
