Omnipedia entry
Oreochromis mossambicus
Warmwater Zone
Black tilapias belong to the Cichlidae family and are often marketed as "freshwater porgies" due to their resemblance to fish from the Sparidae family.
However, black tilapia are highly salt-tolerant and can live in brackish or even seawater. Therefore, it isn't entirely impossible for someone to catch a "freshwater porgy" from the ocean.
