haha yep. dirty a$$ fish but hey its a survivor. They are good to eat tho if you get the ones that they raise at the fish farms. Haoles dont know about the rep tilapias have down here. Its a good tasting fish tho' seriously.

lol..the best thing is that they are free. What i do is grab from canal, store it in aquarium for about a month with controlled water

This was actually a printed recipe somewhere. I didn't come up with this on my own. I've had tilapia before and it was actually pretty good. I spiced it well. This was frozen tilapia, which was farm-raised. Not septic tank cleaning tilapia. But, after reading some of these replies, I don't think I ever wanna eat tilapia again.
