How rotten is too rotten? - 11/26/07 05:16 PM
My tilapia finally died this last weekend. I didn't go there sunday so this morning I dipped out three large dead ones. I checked the gills of some little ones and the gills were pretty pink. The gills on two of the large ones were red and they looked fresh. My grandfather always said a fish was good to eat if the gills were reddish instead of pink or white. I've looked at the gills all my life and it sure doesn't take long for fish to lose color. Are those two tilapia good to eat?
