Can fish be beautiful? Definitely. I found photos on the web, very tiny fish, very beautiful, part of the zooplankton. I don't know their names. What's in a name? There are several fish names that are not liked by English ears. For that reason, the English won't eat the fish. (Those fish aren't very pretty either.) Before Brexit, 95% of megrims (soles) and 85% of spider crabs caught by Cornish fishermen were sold to Spain. Now there are problems with exports. The fishermen want to sell to the English, so they have changed the names - Cornish sole and Cornish king crab. According to Jack Stein, they are good value and delicious. Megrim tastes like plaice.
