In California, Mossambicus Tilapia can be raised because they can’t survive in natural waterways during winter temperatures. However, some states don’t believe that is true and have labeled Tilapia an invasive species. Instead, because they consume plants and nutrients unused by other fish species and substantially reduce oxygen-depleting detritus, adding tilapia often increases the population, size and health of other fish. Tilapia rarely compete with other "pond" fish for food. Tilapia consume floating aquatic plants, such as duckweed, water-meal, most "undesirable" submerged plants, and most forms of algae. Tilapia also serves as a natural biological control for most aquatic plant problems. Blue Tilapia are considered to be the tastiest as well as the hardiest Tilapia to raise. As a food fish, they are mild, tender and delicious and are becoming one of the most popular food fish on the market today. Tilapia can withstand all kinds of water quality issues including low pH, low oxygen levels, and high ammonia and nitrite levels. ![]()
