No, but I'll take my chances with tilapia. We eat it so rarely I'm not worried. It's the one fresh/frozen fish I can stand.

Never heard that. I like it because it's cheap and mild tasting. DH can't stand "fishy" fish, lol.

We didn't eat it because it was farmed and the stuff at costco came from China (after much research and calling around, we discovered this). But I didn't hear about the omega 6.
