Is that a Datnoid he is eating???!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What kind of dat is that? Im pissed cause that would look good in my tank!

On a side note somthing similar to that happened when I had a fish fry. I caught and cleaned a catfish and I fillet much like the guy did in this video. Well I threw the head with spine and tail and guts still attached in a bucket of water and went inside to cook. After cooking, eating, and cleaning I went out to discard the guts and to my disbelief the damn catfish was still alive!!
 
no i don't think its a datnoid.. at first glance it looked like one in the tank but when it was caught and brought out in the cutting board its stripes don't look like those on any datnoid species, especially when you look at the tail portion and the fish lacks the typical yellow stripe in the snout of datnoids as well.. the body color looks close to an american tiger but the stripes don't match though.. probably a different species of fish..

poor fish though, that's cruel :(

is it any different than turning a tilapia into fillet?

Thats not my point bro..what I meant is why throw the fish back into the tank for the sake of amusement? the chef could jolly end the fish life after it was fillet....
 
That is pretty cruel, but it is probably to show how fresh the fish is. Even though it already has a few small chunks taken out of it.
 
Yikes! That sure did look like a datnoid, but I've always heard that FW fish are never eaten raw, only SW fish.

did you see the entire thing mike?:nilly:

the fish was kept alive even thou a big part of it was sliced up!:WHOA:

i also dont think its a dat, its tail end doesnt look like any dat i recognize...i was thinking some sort of saltwater fish perhaps, kinda like a big damsel of some sort. can anybody here translate the vid.? maybe they talk about what kind of fish it is...
