Fish to use in a fish soup?

[kcixcy]

I have seen some threads talking about Greek fish soup so I went to investigate and looked up some recipes. Each recipe talks about different forms of fish and seafood I could use! This is an example of what I see:

- Scallops
- Lobster
- Shrimp
- Cod
- Salmon
- Grouper
- Tilapia

What do they use in Greece? Does it truly matter what gets put into the dish?

Any Greek dish that involves fish - you can basically use any fish or shellfish. There is a type of Greek lobster in the waters. Taste is similar to lobsters in Maine. You can substitute! Same goes for other seafood dishes. Plaki works for all fish, grilling a fish with lemon juice works with all fish, etc.
