dead fish

exactly, but I have heard of people doing it. I guess if you cook it at a high enough temp for long enough it might be ok. I would never eat one of the aquarium raised fish though. Seems like they might have high levels of toxins from being trapped in their little tanks.

I think I will keep it, I would love to give it to ya but he is bad *** lookin....
MMM, its about like 4" ish from the tip of nose to the start of vertabrae, I have the rest of the vertabrae, same condition as the head, it just snapped off though...
i have to look for you
i have a freezer full of dead fish
of the top of my head for the larger specimens - 12in hoplias aimara, 8-9 water cow, 9in female gachua, 6in male gachua, various common cichlids, reticulated stingrays, clown knife fish, indonesian datnoids, widebar datnoids (both dats are between 3-5in 2 were doas still frozen in water), 3 large (8in?) galaxy bristlenose plecos that anthony brought in from the rio xingu for me but they kicked the bucket after a month, ropefish, at least 6 red hi fin wolfish (bad deal with shark aquarium- 1 doa and bad amonia burns on the rest of the fish resulting in death) all 5-8in
thats all i can remember off the top of my head but im sure theres alot more- now that i think it im sure i have a 7-8in saxaltills pike from a local aqualand member, the thing was stunted and deformed so i decided to put it down- it couldnt even compete for food- lots of small native fish (bass-blackbanded sunfish- bluespotted sunfish-bluegill- green sunfish)
ugh the list goes on- lots of bad memories too- one too many power outages/filter problems (il blame that on sand+impeller= trouble lol)
pm me if you need anything- i was just telling my dad i would clean it out

I used to flush or throw away most of my dead fishes... Some of them were preserved in formalin/alcohol (the rarest/ more unusual), some get buried in the garden. Nowadays, my dead fishes become catfish food. In THIS TOPIC you can see pics of this "procedure" (page #2).
Best regards.

well, I haven't seen any swimming around too much, but I keep them anyways. It is cool to me to learn all that I can about cranial morphology, through fish anatomy. I'll try to post some pics of mine on here afterwhile so that all of you can see what I am talking about.
