Can you eat a clownfish?

I figured since some people can eat certain types of domestic animals why not clownfish ? Of course I don’t plan to eat my precious babies, but has anyone had one?

Only if you filet them.

Only if you filet them.

With a very small knife. Or could swallow them whole like they used to do gold fish

Oh! This is an 'eatable' vs 'edible' debate. They are absolutely 'edible' (as in, you can eat them and they're safe) but we wouldn't really consider them 'eatable' because they're not what we would generally consider delicious.
