Paul D Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 Number 8 - MilkFish ? Milkfish (Chanos chanos) is the only species in the Family Chanidae and is most closely related to carps and catfishes. Milkfish lives in the warm waters along the continental shelves and around islands in the Indo-Pacific. BUT just read the "All fish in club waters" message Quote
