Some seafood can be grown using aquaculture. For example, many species of fresh and salt water fish can be grown this way.
Salmon is certainly one type, and can be raised either at in salt or fresh water. Shrimp of different species are also grown in fresh or salt water, depending on their needs.
Catfish are grown in fresh water, as are crayfish.
Mussels are grown in salt water by allowing them to attach to ropes, then lowering the ropes into places in the sea where they can get food and be harvested easily.
Many other species can be grown with aquaculture. I suppose there are probably many species that cannot be grown this way profitably, and there are quite probably some that cannot be grown with aquaculture at all.

What is aquacultre?
Aquaculture is the farming of aquatic organisms such as fish, crustaceans, molluscs and aquatic plants. Aquaculture involves cultivating freshwater and saltwater populations under controlled conditions, and can be contrasted with commercial fishing, which is the harvesting of wild fish. Mariculture refers to aquaculture practised in marine environments.The output, as reported, from aquaculture would supply one half of the fish and shellfish that is directly consumed by humans. However, there are issues about the reliability of the reported figures. Further, in current aquaculture practice, products from several pounds of wild fish are used to produce one pound of apiscivorous fish like salmon.Particular kinds of aquaculture include fish farming, shrimp farming, oyster farming,alga culture (such as seaweed farming), and the cultivation of ornamental fish. Particular methods include aquaponics, which integrates fish farming and plant farming.
