Chemical solution

» Re: "Halting tilapia invasion 'a priority'", (BP, July 23). After reading about the invasion of the blackchin tilapia and the problems farmers have had dealing with it, I wanted to share a story about a similar but much smaller problem that our family faced in the southern part of the US some 50 years ago.

» Re: “Govt seeks source of alien fish influx”, (BP, July 21). It was with incredulity that I read, “Govt seeks source of alien fish influx”. The source will never be found of course, since a predatory bird could have dropped a pregnant tilapia from high in the air — any newly formed body of freshwater in Thailand will soon be populated with fish in just this manner.
Fishy failures

» Re: "Time to solve fish invasion", (Editorial, July 19) and "Really fishy business", (Editorial, July 6). The BP editorial highlights the problem created by an invasive species of freshwater fish called blackchin tilapia. Tilapia are the third world's salmon, a valuable food fish rich in protein and easy to cultivate.
