I sometimes buy from Citarella on the Upper West Side, and occasionally from Sea Breeze market on Ninth Ave near 40th Street. In a pinch, I will buy from Whole Foods (Columbus Circle), but they're unreliable. In a very tight pinch, I have bought from Amish Market on Ninth and 50th, and Food Emporium on Eighth and 49th (American farmed tilapia and catfish only). Hi Hilla,

Blue Ocean Institute has great research available (http://blueocean.org/seafood/seafood-guide), and so does Environmental Defense Fund (http://www.edf.org/page.cfm?tagID=1521).
