Cuisine & Edibility
Bonefish
Edible but extremely bony flesh; rarely consumed as table fare in modern sport fishing. Almost exclusively caught-and-released; the species is prized for its fighting ability, not flavor.
Neon Tetra
Not consumed — ornamental aquarium species kept for its vivid iridescent stripe and peaceful schooling behavior.
Species Overview
Bonefish
The bonefish is the premier shallow-water flats species, prized by fly fishers for its blistering initial run. Found in tropical shallows worldwide, it feeds by rooting in sand and marl for crustaceans and mollusks.
Neon Tetra
The neon tetra is one of the most popular freshwater aquarium fish, known for its iridescent blue and red horizontal stripes. Native to blackwater streams of the Amazon basin, it thrives in schools of six or more.
