The kelp greenling is currently sold on the live fishery market. In fact, Mark Barnes at Premium Pacific Seafoods states that kelp greenling is 45% of the biomass that he buys and sells for the live fish market (2003). This is an increase from approximately 20% in 1998. There may be potential to also develop this species for the ornamental market due to its behavior (clasping to algae) and coloration (see the bottom of this page).
