Blue -fish: The salt solution is good for goldfish and for some, but not all, native fish. Another good fungicide, not as readily available as salt but usually obtainable at a drug store, is the dye methylene blue -fish. This may be used with either fresh or salt water fish. It is completely nontoxic to fish, so the concentration does not have to be regulated very carefully. A common rule of thumb is to add enough of the dye to color the water a rich blue -fish. Fish may be kept in such a solution a week or longer without harm.
WHITE FISH—use in fish cakes, fish pie or as a fish salad.
SHELL FISH—use as potted fish, in fish salads, add to sauces.
SMOKED FISH—haddock—put into a Kedgeree, add to potato for fish cakes.
OILY FISH (kippers in particular)—pound for a pate to use as a sandwich filling.
Animal Life.—Each summer tropical fish from the West Indies invade Narragansett Bay, and Rhode Island is one of the two richest areas of marine life on the east coast. Portuguese man-of-war, jellyfish, sea cucumber, starfish, blue -fish-fish, cod, herring, quahog, tautog scup, lobster, scallops, and mussels are a few of the varieties found along the shores, while trout, perch, pickerel, and other fish have their habitats in the inland ponds and streams. |
