Perhaps it might be a feed issue?

Janani,
It is not clear from your message whether you are talking about the
whole fish or fillets. If whole fish, Pam Tom's suggestion is a good
one. If you are observing this in the fillets, perhaps something akin to
"greening" in tuna might be at play.

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if it is possible for farmed tilapia to have green
coloration without any off-odors or flavors or any other signs of
decomposition. Are there any enzymatic reactions that could trigger this
coloration? Or is this a sign of decomposition?
Thanks and Best wishes for the upcoming year!!!
Janani
