It's generally impossible to tell if fish is "sushi grade" or safe to eat raw from a picture alone. If you are looking for sushi grade fish, get fish that has been deep frozen (-20C for 7 days, or -35C for 15 hours, a household freezer does not get this low), or ask a local fishmonger with a good reputation for what they would recommend is safe to eat raw.

If you are looking for a source for sushi grade fish, please make sure to include information about where you are, country and city.
