Newborn tilapia fish are called "fry." After hatching from eggs, fry are small and vulnerable, relying on their yolk sac for nourishment until they are able to swim and feed independently. As they grow, they will go through several stages of development before reaching adulthood.
Tilapia are often referred to as "St. Peter's fish" due to a biblical story in the New Testament where Jesus instructs Peter to catch a fish that has a coin in its mouth to pay the temple tax. This story, combined with the fact that tilapia were abundant in the Sea of Galilee, led to the fish being associated with St. Peter. Additionally, in some cultures, tilapia is considered a symbol of faith and divine providence.
