I was in walmart today with mom, grocery shopping. My mom felt like buying fish (not live ones, but the kind we eat LOL) and i was just glancing at the fish they had (the full bodied ones with heads and everything)...


Boy was i surpriesed when i saw they had ID sharks... for sale... literally... i blinked... blinked twice and stared in aw as i saw them... I didnt know they were eatable....

Kinda creepy though... they were like 1ft and a half....

just felt like sharing...

aww im sorry it upset you ...sometimes thats the reality of fisherman and making a living...its hard but remember they arent our pets!
im having a huge haddock filet for dinner..but I did cut some off before cooking it to feed to some of my tanks ..does that make it ok?

You sure it was an Iridescent Shark Tony?
Not saying it wasn't but Southeast Asia to Mexico is a long ways to ship fresh fish.
Unless someone in Mexico is breeding them for food purposes Theres an idea for your next breeding project.....

I love tilapia. If I ever have a big enough area, I would love to have two ponds - one for my goldies and one for game fish. Tilapia actually do quite well in our climate.

Tony G.

i think most game fish do well in your area gremlin LOL

Trout only do well in the winter - it gets too hot in the summer. Bass and Tilapia are fine year round. And of course catfish, bluegill, sunfish, etc.

LOVES trout year round...its great here...and no tony you arent eating my tilapies!! LOL
