Hi, I love my saltwater creatures, but I still love to eat fish, and scallops and crab......Just wondered how everyone else feels about this?? Do you eat seafood? Lesley

Conch, Octopus, lobsters, oysters, etc.
Big Fish like “Mero”, “Chillo”, etc.
Small like “Balaju”
We make salads with octopus + lobster + Conch + tomatoes + onions + vinegar +oil.
I go fishing with my father here in Puerto Rico. I've been eating sea food since I was 1 year old.

I can't get enough of it!!
I often wonder how my Scarlet Cleaner Shrimp would taste with some garlic, lemon, and butter sauteed in a pan. ;)
I don't eat fish though.........not because I am against that.......I just don't like the taste.
Crab, Lobster, Shrimp, Scallops, Squid, Crawfish, Mussels..........mmmmmmm.........I am starting to get hungry.
Honestly, I am cooking up some crab legs tonight along with shrimp ceaser salad. :)

The ONLY sea creatures I eat are muscles (marinara), Dolphin (not flipper, there's also a dolphin fish, looks nothing like flipper for those who don't know), and lobster tail, ALL GRILLED... except the muscles. OH YEAH!! Sometimes conch fritters. Other than that, I hate the taste of fish, and the only time I eat this stuff is when I am cooking it. I once had a 19 inch albino catfish I thought looked kinda tasty. You could see the filets right under the skin. But I hate catfish. Plus the freakin thing died when the seal in the overflow box gave way while I was out of town. basement still stinks!
 
i use to be a sushi chef......eat sushi too........except for fresh eel because I just feel like I'm eating my tiretrack from home:mad:

I went off sure fishing a week ago and we caught 30-50 lb Yellowfin Tuna. We cut it up and threw a little soy on it and had fresh sushi. Then we grilled some - Outstanding (even better with some beer)! I only eat certain types of fish but eat just about everything else (clams, oysters, scallops, shrimp, mussells, crabs, lobster,etc..). I like my tank inhabitants to know whose in charge!:D

Oh yeah...I eat seafood...all kinds of seafood. Sushi of various types (no UNI! Sea Urchin tastes like dirt!) But I grew up right near a big fishing port, with relatives who were commercial fisherman. Lobster, tuna, striped bass, swordfish right from the boat, MMmmmm...
Doesn't really bother me with my aquarium. I wouldn't eat the kinds of fish I keep in there anyway. Although, I have often wondered about buying one of those live lobsters from the supermarket and tossing it in a tank...hmm...

I can't seem to eat octopus anymore. I think they are very intelligent and one of the most interesting animals in the sea. I kinda feel it would be like eating a dog. Sure wish they weren't so hard to keep in a home tank.
But I sure do love other seafood....clam chowder with a fillet of shark....yummy.

Yup...I confess...I eat any type seafood set in front of me. Except for sushi...I've never developed a taste for sushi. Other than the raw stuff I've never met a seafood I didn't like!:cool:
Maybe thats why my tangs both run for cover whenever I remove the tops of my systems!!:p

This is one area that it sucks to live in Wyo. No good seafood markets or restaurants around here. :(

Gotta agree with NM on this, took the words right out of my mouth.
There is one thing I will not eat seafood, and that is that nasty pasty looking pickled herring. Yeck :p

I just had shrimp for dinner :) Seafood is my favorite, lobster and sushi being at the top of that list. Actually, I've eaten more seafood since I've had my reef tank. As far as sushi goes, I love it all. I must say, the more exotic, the more I like it. Favorites so far are giant clam and uni (urchin).

I too love seafood--but I must confess after learning what all these guys eat....sometimes i pick fish over the crabs ..still love it though..some good quality raw oysters always hit the spot:)
 
dont eat giant clam! please those are clams that have lived over hundreds of years gone in a meal and theyre population are dropping dramatically.

All you can eat seafood...and I will be first in line at that joint. Even if I had grouper I would never look at them in that way though. I look at them as children.

I've had porcupine puffer tail before in Japan. :eek: It was bizarre. But I love me some seafood all around. Mmmmmmmmm good. Calamari, tops. Salmon, not sw, but still great. Grouper, why not. I've even tried seaweed. That sucks. :D
