Some fish concentrate the natural pigments present in phytoplankton, which are at the bottom of the food pyramid. This is the case for some salmon species.
Commercially-reared salmon have such pigments added to their feed, so their flesh is red, even though their wild cousins' flesh is mostly white. Marketing has determined that consumers expect salmon to have red flesh.
