In practice however, its use is very limited.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the common, unscientific, names of fish are very inaccurate. For example, there are a number of different species of fish that go by the name tilapia, tuna or red snapper, respectively\u2014and not all of them are kosher. Note that even the FDA warns that species substitution is a very serious problem.<\/p>\n<p>For more on how to go about buying kosher fish see All About Kosher Fish<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also note:<\/strong> This is not an all inclusive list of all non-kosher fish. With thousands and thousands of fish species it would be impossible to produce such a listing. The species presented here are the species commonly fished and sold in fish markets in the U.S.A. If a particular species is not listed it should be not taken as an indication that it is kosher. Rather, its absence from the Kosher Fish Listsignifies that it is most likely not kosher.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Non Kosher Fish List<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/globalkosher.org\/kosher-fish\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Click HERE to the Kosher Fish List.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Angler See: Goosefishes<\/p>\n<p>Basa (Pangasius bocourti)<\/p>\n<p>Beluga See: Sturgeons<\/p>\n<p>Billfishes (Family Istiophoridae).
