fish food??

[Bifferwine]

Even if the ones you name say for freshwater fish, it will be fine to give to your saltwater friends too!

im going to let you in on a little secret. most fish foods were made for freshwater fish and then the manufacturer adds stuff in for our salty friends

The freshwater frozen foods are: Bloodworms, Cichlid Delight, Freshwater multi pack (4 varieties of food) and Beefheart. Can I give these to my saltwater fish?

My SW fish do not like bloodworms, but I think yote uses them.

Interesting. I've always heard bloodworms were like crack to fish.

How do you store the food in Tupperware. Do you add SW to it? Is the food thawed before storing. Do you just put one feeding at a time in the tupperware? Please explain further. Thanks.

Just take the cube and let it thaw.Then when your done feeding,just cover and place in the fridge.

A variety is best. Buy 3 or 4 different foods and rotate which ones you use. Mysis shrimp, Emerald Entree and Marine Cuisine are all easy to find and are great foods. Rod's Food is a bit pricier and usually only found at LFS, but Rod's Food already has a mix of stuff and is a great all-in-one food.

My fish also eat bloodworms, fortified brine shrimp, tubifex worms, krill and plankton.
