What's for Dinner?

Clown Knife Fish anyone?

Yikes... No thank you.

People eat tilapia all the time. Even pangasious catfish. Heck, back in the Philippines, people sold different types of barbs as food. Lol

 

[Caseyf]

Just bread it and fry it, and I'm sure it would be tasty

zombie apocalypse comes, I'm frying all my fish.

Too thin! Now if it were a big thick Oscar or trimac...... You might be able to get some fillets out of it..... Haha

Speaking of this..... Is that what you did with those extra large plecos? Haha

 

[PokeSephiroth]

.....maybe.

You ever had fish sauce before? In the Philippines it's known as "patis" I'm pretty sure it's made out of zebra plecos. ;-)

 

[lloyd378]

Yep, I've had fish sauce a few times.... In Japan

 

[PokeSephiroth]

Mmmm mmm mmm gotta love fish sauce.

I remember watching this video on YouTube of a guy filleting a pleco. Quite disturbing. Don't know if I want to post the link here. I'll leave you to find it if you're curious.

 

[lloyd378]

Nope, I was looking for pics of massively fat oscars but can't find them.... There goes my theory on Oscar fillets

 

[lloyd378]

Maybe this will do

 

[PokeSephiroth]

Fish and chips for everyone!!

Tried Oscar in Florida and it tasted just like bass. Not bad but wouldn't do it again. Several water ways and canals in Florida are full of them. Most are from the local fish farms that use outdoor ponds to raise tropical fish. A hurricane will cause the ponds to overflow and run into close by waterways. Now Florida is full of oscars, snake heads, tilapia, pacu. All food fish with no limits on how many you can get.

I have a guy who is going to catch me a feral canal midas and ship it to me this spring...., though id love to go catch my own

Back when I was attending college in the Philippines, I knew a guy who had a flower horn that died. Didn't want it to go to waste so he fried it.

I had another friend that had an arrowana that jumped and died. He didn't want to have it rot away so he kept it in his freezer. Don't know if they ate it but it must be frozen still. Somewhere. Maybe? Nah.
