AquaticEngineer Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 My brother and I did the rounds today on the live seafood markets to see if there was anything new and exciting. Mostly the same old stuff, snails, abalone, crab, lobster, clams, oysters, blah blah blah..... But we found a new place that did have live fish today and these are what they had. They were all about 8 inches long or so, averaging about 2 lbs they told me and they were $7.99 a lb. Didn't know what they were at first but suspected a kelp greenling, which they turned out to be. Looks like they had 3 coloration's in there. Did some quick reading and the color differences are just male, female, and juvenile My pictures dont do them justice so I'll post google images underneath each of my pics.

Emerald525 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 So what they are saying is if it starts to eat your other fish, you can make a nice dinner.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
