Anyone ever eat a pet tropical fish????

Question

I have never really thought about it until today. My friend saw my six 6" Silver Dollars and my two 8" Albino Oscars and asked me am I building them up to be on my dinner plate. Piranha are hunted for food, Silver Dollars are very much like Piranha and would probably taste the same. I know for a fact that Pacu is on the menu in some restaurants, and at least I know what my fish are eating. But the question is ' Would you do it???'

Answer 1

Kevin Kline did in "Wanda" - remember?

Answer 2

what shark? what tropical fish? sorry, yet "tropical fish" and "tropical shark" isnt a species of fish. why didnt you study approximately stay animals earlier to procure them? now they could die, with the aid of fact which you're a fool and fail to be to blame? could you kill a puppy or a kitten? the bucket would be too chilly, yet however the exterior pond is a extra advantageous determination? i pretty doubt there's no fish keep who will settle for a unfastened fish. exceptionally in the event that they convey about that species. the quickest and maximum humane thank you to kill a fish, is get an excellent bucket packed with water and ice, THEN placed the fish in the bucket, and watch it squirm for roughly 20 seconds and pass into marvel, and then that's going to pass away. good job, ****** asshole.

Answer 3

i know for a fact that they raise my dojo loaches for food in china and my parents were so interested in seeing that i had gouramis once. i asked why and they said that they ate those in the philippines. i was like really? hmm



I guess the closest thing to pet tropical fish i've eaten is a tilapia, since people do keep them as pets and they are easily harvested for food, but nothing from my tank. Waay too expensive is right! lol

Answer 4

How funny!!! I personally wouldnt BUT my father had a cray fish/Blue Lobster in his community tank, it was only about 2 inches when he bought it and it grew and grew and grew, it was huge and one day my father was so fed up with it because it kept uprooting the plants and destoying the tank, that popped it in a pan of boiling water and had it for his lunch, and was very tasty!!

Answer 5

No real reason why not I suppose apart from the size of most of them. I tend to go in for the smaller varieties and it would take fair few tetras to fill a sardine tin!!



So No, I haven't and I wouldn't.

Answer 6

What are you talking about? Of course! I have Neon Tetra kabobs when I have friends over all the time! A little barbecue sauce, and it tastes just like grilled salmon!





No, I wouldn't eat an aquarium fish...

Answer 7

I think a lot of tropical fish are too small to have much meat on them.

just make sure when you catch it its dead before eating it

it leaves a nasty tiny bite otherwise
