[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU EVER EAT REEF FISH IN THE CARIBBEAN. This could save you many, maaaaany years of pain and suffering. [/quote] Why? Curious as I have had grouper many times, but in Florida.[/quote] Because reef fish eat flora in reefs, which often consist of organisms that feed on things like dinoflagellates that contain ciguatoxins. Or reef fish feed on other fish that do, thereby bioaccumulating. You have played Russian roulette and won for now, but ciguatox poisoning is very common and lead to upwards of 20 years of suffering some people since the toxin can have a very long half life consisting of years. Neurotoxins are something you don't want to mess with.[/quote]
