I must say, we really like the Aquaponic Catfish. Just net one, quick kill and clean/fillet and prepare that evening.
No special purging or anything needed. And quite frankly, the few times I have noticed the "dense" texture in the catfish, I think we overcooked it.
We just had some catfish tonight, was great, moist and tender. Breaded and baked on top of a bed of pineapple with a hot pepper and tangerine marmalade glaze. Luscious as my mom would say.
But there are people out there who think catfish taste muddy, I've never experienced that.
We were watching Bizarre Foods last night - generally completely disgusting - but the theme was Los Angeles, and they showed Wolfgang Puck preparing a whole catfish. He just made about 3 deep, diagonal slits on each side and inserted slices of ginger, (and maybe something else... lemon?), salted it, dusted it with cornstarch and slid it into the deep fryer. Looked amazing!
Ok, now I'm hungry.... Now we need a recipe thread!

I should note that AZGardens.com sells yabbies: http://www.azgardens.com/p-219-lobster-cherax-blue-lobster.aspx
I agree Emma, we love to cook and it just makes sense to have a food thread!

I would love to raise Yabbies, but not at $8.00 a pop. Unless it is like someone said earlier, get them as brood stock.
I purchased my tillapia fingerlings from edgar sanchez at unlocksmith @tilapiafarmingathome.com
he sells breders and mixed sex fingerlings, nice guy his website is tilapia farming at home. He also offers a 75% discont on breeders if you are the first person to find out the rules for bring his type of tilapia into your state
I also purchased Blue Tilapia fingerlings from Rex his email is rrains@hotmail .com anouther nice guy usually has a ad on ebay.
In either case they were shipped via mail over several states I only lost one baby
I have breeders in the basment hopefully I will be having some for slae in the next couple of months pure strian blue and alsoT. hornorum X mossambica cross. This cross acording to what I have read shoud produce 98% male. This would be a a on a small scale.
Before you get any fish make sure you can have them where you live.
The U.S may be the home of the free but no when it comes to keeping tilapia.
