i picked some up today and cut the fillets into strips my rays and arrow hammered them up anyone else ever try fish fillets is there any fish to stay away from?
 
I feed tilapia occasionally. Tried it tonite with my new pup, she likes it:)
 
yeah its pretty cheap which is always good
yeah i use smelt all the time its my main food for my rays
 
i haven't feed tilapia in a while. i have tried catfish fillets this i do not recommend very oily and fouls tank fast.
 
i don't have rays, but it is the staple meaty food for my larger fish. Works great, doesn't dirty the water, and very healthy for them
 
cool i always get a little worried when i try new foods just want to make sure its ok
 
I don't see why there'd be any problems with it, but it wouldn't have the same nutritional content as more oily fish (ie. smelts). I tried it with my rays but they wouldn't touch it.
 
I used to feed tilapia and smelt but ever since I started incorporating shrimp and scallops into their diet they now want nothing to do with the fish!
 
i tried it once they didnt eat it right away.... ended up not trying it again but i have talked to a few people who do feed it...
