I have 2 young kids and my wife are pregnant with another one. My wife have been frequently advise to eat more fish especially those with high Omega 3 content as Omega 3 are good for brain development. It also have the same benefits for young child and also benefit adult in one way or another.
However, I realize that there is also the concern of mercury content in fish especially popular high Omega 3 fish such as Tuna, Salmon and etc. To deal with that, I am thinking of eating plant based Omega 3 & local freshwater fish with lower Omega 3 content (not sure how low) but recently I heard that freshwater fish actually have higher mercury content that can affect brain development. I am confuse
. Do you guys have any info about this?
Other than that, I also wanted to show my kids the photo of those fish before it is cooked & served on a plate as I noticed many youngster today don't even know what kind of fish that they're eating. (Including myself, I only know few but not really sure how to differentiate it). I don't want my kids to be like those kids in developed country like USA & etc that don't even realize the foods that they eat especially meat are living being that have head, feet, name and etc before being served as food.
And being a Chinese and living in Malaysia, I also want to know and tell my kids the name of those fish in Chinese, Malay and etc. Hope you guys have some info about this.

1. skip Salmon except u can find wild. cause high in pesticide, PCBA and etc.
2. Skip all big fish as may have higher mercury content.
3. Go for ikan bilis, the smaller the fish is, the lesser the mercury and etc.
4. Moderate at every food.
5. You can find canned sardine. That sardine is tiny and wild catch that dip in Olive oil. This option is expensive, cause those sardines cost more than rm10 per tiny can.
