Yes, tilapia is a fish. We can get it in the supermarkets in the UK (I was looking at it today) but it's twice the price of trout! For that reason alone I haven't tried it yet, but some of the guys here swear by it. All my Garters love trout, so I'll try tilapia when I find it 'reduced'.;)

One of those few species of fish that can successfully be farmed in developing countries, especially in Africa.

I've been feeding my snake strictly thawed frozen pinkies. He seems to be happy, but I'd love to vary the diet. I have tilapia in my freezer right now! Looks like we're eating fish tonight. What other tasty treats would you recommend?
