Hi Kyle,
If the difference is that little (< 10%), I wouldn't think twice even if the tank-raised stuff is half the size of the wild one.
Seriously, if you can get the cost that competitive, I don't think you need to do much to convince LFS to switch to your supply. Just point out that they can easily justify the 10% increase by reducing their lost on the wholesaler and store end. Because of that, the LFS might even be able to eat that 10% so there will be no price increase on the consumer end.
The only issue then will be to maintain a recently stable supply of tank-raised fish.
