Tilapia is one of several commercially important aquaculture species (including [[trout]], barramundi and channel catfish) susceptible to off-flavours. These 'muddy' or 'musty' flavours are normally caused by geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol, organic products of ubiquitous cyanobacteria that are often present or bloom sporadically in water bodies and soil.[43] These flavours are no indication of freshness or safety of the [[fish]], but can harm the reputation of a product in the eyes of the consumer. Simple quality control procedures are known to be effective in ensuring the quality of fish entering the market. | Tilapia is one of several commercially important aquaculture species (including [[trout]], barramundi and channel catfish) susceptible to off-flavours.
