do people really eat their cichlids?

[Biggfeast]

Ive seen it in a few posts and videos of people talkin bout eating their cichlids if they over grow their tank or die. Is this true?

i sure hope not thats nasty! who would want to eat a fish thats been eating flakes and pellets. then again ive always thought eating a bass that just swallowed a worm off ur hook was kinda nasty too

No way I could eat my fish!! Not much different than eating my dog which I could never do either!!! :0

IIRC a lot of the chemicals used to treat water say they are not intended for use with edible fish. So, anyone who has done this, please post a picture of any strange growths or extra limbs you've since developed.

I have caught some invasive Oreochromis and put them in tanks until I was ready to eat them, but that was the plan all along. I only named one of them and he was eaten as well. Tilapia are very tasty, especially when fresh!

I think there was a thread on here a long time ago about a guy eating his Midas with pics.

I can't even imagine a Jaguar being tasty.
Especially after dying randomly in a tank
or with water dosed with a bunch of dechlorinator.... Have you ever smelled that stuff? It reeks! Haha

There is a thread on here I can't remember the name right now but he has a pond and it had pacu and ID sharks and stuff and he had pics of 3 fish that he ate.
