Compared to the meat and poultry products , fish tends to decompose faster , and stale fish is just useless to eat . Frozen fish loses it's natural taste , so it's always better to buy fresh .
There are certain criterias to ascertain the freshness ,like the texture , redness of the gills , and eyes of the fish etc.
For prawns , the shells should not be separating from the meat , and crabs keep on breathing even if out of the water , and they should be alive .
It's advisable to buy fresh fish , in a proportionate quantity , clean , marinate , cook , and store in the fridge , for two or three meals , and just finish it off !
For keeping in the deep fridge , clean , wash , and store for a maximum of three days , not more .

Tips on buying seafood.
I want to include more fish in my diet and I would love to start cooking with seafood. Is buying it from the supermarket ok? Or should I find a fish market? Are there certain days that are best to buy fish and how long is the food good for? Can seafood be frozen?
I usually buy groceries once a week. If that helps.
