Thaw frozen food before feeding

i used to but too much goes to waste into the filter. now, i just toss a cube in there and my big guy eats it right up. ive been doing it for a while now and havent seen any harm come from it.

For krill, I always scoop some tank water into a cup and float it until its thawed and sinks. For blood worms and beef heart, I usually just chop the cubes up and toss it in for my bigger guys; when I'm feeding smaller fish (tetras, barbs, etc) I float it as well and dump it in.

...not sure if thats the right way, just the way I do it.

I thaw. My fish won't eat frozen food...he spits it back out.

Same here. Mine wont usually eat frozen. Have to thaw it.

I thought I read somewhere it is bad for fish to eat frozen foods frozen.

Cubes and very small fish, I've always thrown in frozen.
Larger whole fish, I thaw at least almost completely.
