הזהירנו מאכול דג טמא. והוא אמרו יתעלה במיני דגים ההם ושקץ יהיו לכם מבשרם לא תאכלו. ומי שאכל כזית מהן לוקה. (שם, שם):

Sefaria Edition 2021, Translated by Rabbi Francis Nataf

He prohibited us from eating impure fish. And that is His, may He be exalted, saying about those species of fish, "They shall be repulsive to you, you shall not eat of their meat" (Leviticus 11:11). And one who eats a kazayit of them is lashed. (See Parashat Shemini; Mishneh Torah, Forbidden Foods 1.)
