Branzino, also known as European sea bass, is generally considered to have low to moderate levels of Mercury compared to larger predatory fish. While it is safer to consume than fish like swordfish or shark, it's still recommended to eat it in moderation, especially for vulnerable populations such as pregnant women and young children. Overall, branzino can be a healthy option as part of a balanced diet.

What happens to fish and other water life when mercury levels get to high?
When mercury levels get too high in water, fish and other water life can accumulate the mercury in their tissues. Consuming these contaminated organisms can lead to mercury poisoning in animals higher up in the food chain, including humans. High levels of mercury can harm the nervous system, impair reproduction, and have other adverse health effects in aquatic organisms.
Mackerel has silvery skin. It looks like containing mercury type of material. Any scientific evidence that the skin contains or does not contain mercury?
No. The silver color is absolutely not due to mercury. When analysis is done on fish, even ones known to be high in mercury, the results are given in parts per BILLION. Even the highest mercury-containing fish (that the FDA advises pregnant people limit or avoid) isn't more than one dozen parts per billion. That is, the fish is .00000012% mercury, an amount that's going to be completely invisible. While the skin of fish probably does contain mercury, it's not anymore than the rest of the fish, and the color is no indicator of mercury content. You cannot estimate the mercury content of fish based on the fish's appearance.
Is the mercury in fish the same as the one in the periodic table?
Yes, the mercury found in fish is the same element as the one on the periodic table. However, the mercury content in fish can be in the form of methylmercury, a highly toxic organic compound that can accumulate in organisms through the food chain.
Is Mercury a safe metal?
Mercury is toxic to humans, and exposure to high levels can damage the nervous system, kidneys, and other organs. It is important to minimize exposure to mercury through proper handling and disposal of products containing mercury.
What is Mercury obtained?
The consumption of fish is by far the most significant source of ingestion-related mercury exposure in humans, although plants and livestock also contain mercury. Exposure to mercury can occur from breathing contaminated air; from eating foods containing mercury residues from processing, such as can occur with high fructose corn syrup; from exposure to mercury vapor in mercury amalgam dental restorations; and from improper use or disposal of mercury and mercury-containing objects.Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_poisoning

Can eating fish everyday with healthy side dishes hurt you?
Eating fish is very healthy, especially the ones with lots of fish oil. Fish has iron and Omega 3 (a great source for brain food).

I should note that Mercury levels are especially high in large predatory fish. Moderation is the answer. I hope you found this answer useful.
