What kinds of fish are Jews allowed to eat?

To be kosher, a fish must have fins and scales (Leviticus ch.11). So for example salmon has both and is kosher. Some eels, however, are not because while they have scales they have no fins. The sanitary reason is that fish without fins tend to be bottom dwellers and bottom dwellers, like lobsters, clams and oysters, tend to live in shallower waters and feed on anything they can find -- and in ancient times shallow waters was where human waste washed into the sea....Need I say more? For further information, see the attached Related Link.

To be kosher, a fish must have both fins and scales - some fish, such as lampreys (and also whales which were considered fish in ancient times, though we now know that they are of course mammals) do not, and so are treif (not kosher). Flying fish have both and as such are kosher.There's a good list of both kosher and treif fish at http://www.kosherquest.org/bookhtml/FISH.htm

Are clownfish kosher?

Clownfish, also called anemone fish, are a type of Amphiprioninae, of the family Pomacentridae. They are not included on any list of kosher or non-kosher fish. Because they have fins and ctenoid scales, they are presumablykosher. However, this answer should not be taken as a certification of kosher-status: a more knowledgeable source should be sought.


Why can't Jews eat shellfish?

Because God is reported to have said, through strict Jewish interpretation, that only fish with fins and scales can be eaten. Shellfish do not have these properties, so they can't be eaten. Le 11:9 'These you may eat of all that are in the water: whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers-that you may eat. Le 11:10 'But all in the seas or in the rivers that do not have fins and scales, all that move in the water or any living thing which is in the water, they are an abomination to you. De 14:9 "These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat all that have fins and scales. De 14:10 "And whatever does not have fins and scales you shall not eat; it is unclean for you.
