I realize this might be more appropriate for the freshwater section, but Len thinks we need more traffic here. Sooooo.....

Tilapia is a cichlid that is commonly farmed for food. We got some at Costco, and because I am married, my wife cooked it. (She is British, so I use this term loosly.)

Anyway, it tasted pretty bad. I fed some to the dog, and it is only now that I think he will survive.

I tossed the remainder into the toilet, reasoning that this was a good way to dispose of dead fish, and also I didn't want to smell it.

Now the toilet is fairly clogged. It is wedged down in there too deep to plunge out, and the water drains really slowly.

Since I don't like to over-react, I suggested we simply leave it for six months and hope that it rots away.

But my wife wants me to deal with this more pro-actively.

So what is the best way to deal with this? I was thinking concentrated sodium hydroxide.

:lol: I can't cook tilapia either. :lol: We have a friend who manages to make it taste just wonderful. I suggest that is where your solution lies.




How much fish are we talking here, approximately or as exactly as you can say?

Stick a hose down to the blockage. Then suck.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

I usually use the term "denaturing" when referring to British "cooking."

Did you actually try one of those big suction cup thingies? When I use those generally they produce a violent ejection of giant hairy clumps of toilet paper, turds, plastic dinosaurs and the like, immediately followed by the toilet overflowing. But at least it's unclogged.
