I'm a fish-a-holic, both in keeping them and in eating them, but I stick to the salties like king salmon, halibut, cod, that sort of thing.... and ha, I've eaten these fish in front of my loaches before, but I think they still love me.
All of mine seem to sulk on the bichir's "fish day" but I try to cube it up and make it look as little like fish as pos, they still seem to "know" though lol

lol well okay, most of the time they are... cute name, by the way :)

I once had a yoyo loach that swam upstream into the filter. It was so funny because looking through the tank to the filter, I saw a shadow swimming around inside it! He was okay.

When I was in China I was served "fish soup". It was very tasty but I soon realized what looked like noodles at first had little eyes on them.

This happened again with beef soup--the noodle looking things, tripe.

As long as I didn't ask what the food was, it was good.

seems to be the going rule :)

(horse doesn't taste that bad, but it was the LAST time I asked "what's in it?" now I just go "Does it have fish or mushrooms? no, put it on the plate then." :P )

Horse? as in equine?

I don't if this is true but people don't eat horse all that much is because a lot of people are allergic to their meat.

Yup, they eat hay kind.

Not heard the allergic to horse bit. I have a friend who is allergic to buffalo.
