Haha omg, tilapia is the best fish ever, my favorite kind of fish sticks. Not too long ago a friend asked me if I could take his cichlid off his hands, I said sure I'll plop it in my monster tank and see how it goes, if not I'll bring it to a LFS. I got there and found out it was a tilapia, I lol'd so hard. I didn't know they were also pet fish. Hahaha
I put him in my aquarium and within like 3 minutes he had already beaten up a few fish, I sat there glaring at him saying, "If you don't stop being a douchebag I'm gonna eat you!"
I never did though. I brought him to the LFS.
I've heard gar and snakehead are good noms. If my gars ever die of something silly like forgetting to condition the water, I'm sure I'd try it. I mean I eat pike and walleye allll the time. Why waste the body when it can be eaten?
A fish swimming in a closed enviorment in its fecses and urine. No way. At least a lake is large or at least a pond.

lol no as much as you can say your fish are part of the family they're still your pets which places them along side bessie the cow that mr farmer keeps. what do you think happens to bessie's body when she dies? Unless you're a mermaid and give birth to both fish and humans...your comparison makes no sense.
if anything compare it to when your dog dies if you like, rare to see someone eat their dog. (although not unheard of in certain countries).
I suppose this will all depend on the kind of fish you keep, if you keep trout or bass, sure should be fine and taste ok, but most others are not so tasty and you'd be mutilating your pet to spit them out in disgust. not a pretty scenario. Although I guess it depends there are many fish kept in aquaria today that used to or still are food sources for their native lands.
my mom had a huge three foot channel cat and she killed my fish so i cooked her channel cat and ate it all
LOL ...I know the feeling! My large TSN is now residing in an outdoor deep pond...They are buck-wild at 20" and up...never again, I had enough...not to mention what he ate could feed 2 small children...tcarswell;3560361; said:
