Hadn’t heard of the tilapia speculation. Of course, the salient point for the story is not the species but the number of the fish.

Tilapia are a rapidly reproducing species.
I guess the Lord didn't want to work too hard, ya know? (LOL)
Of course this tilapia 'myth' could have been started and spread by an
outfit called: 'St. John's Fish Farm' several decades ago to boost sales.
Who knows?
