Are Freshwater Angelfish edible?

Question

Are Freshwater Angelfish edible?

Answer 1

  Depends what species is doing the eating.  Any larger piscavorous fish will find them tasty.

Answer 2

Yes, but I wouldn't eat anything from a pet store...  Many medications (malachite green, formalin, copper) stay in the fish long after the treatment ends and are therefor not approved by the FDA.  Malachite green and formalin are both carcinogens, which means they may have cancerous side affects.  If you're gonna eat an Angelfish, get a wild one.

Answer 3

Any freshwater fish is edible

Answer 4

Why would you want to eat an angelfish though?

Answer 5

Yes but if it has been raised eating fish food and not live or frozen foods it will taste horrible.
