You would bake it covered. You should be able to use nile perch with any recipes that calls for a white fish.

I live in Yerushaliyim and I can find nile perch in almost all of the major stores. In my neighborhood of Ramot also has in the neighborhood stores. If you use tilapia, you will have to cut the potatoes very thin because tilapia bakes very fast. The Nile perch is much thicker and takes longer to bake. It is called, in Hebrew, “Nisichat Ha-Nilus”.
