We feed our French bulldogs a higher quality grain free food made by Wellness with mostly fish and vegetable. Can I feed this to my arowanas and peacock bass? I will continue to feed tilapia 4 times a week as well. Thanks5195B-nhXIL._AC_UL320_SR254,320_.jpg 49158_PT3._AC_SL1500_V1447106819_.jpg 49158_PT2._AC_SL1500_V1447106817_.jpg
 
Would.
NOT.
RECOMMEND.....

Without knowing for SURE, you could introduce all kind of unknowns if you attempt to use this for feeding fish. If however on the other hand you want to try it, be SURE you are ready to start doing MASSIVE WATER CHANGES at the HINT that something ODD is happening with your tanks inhabitants...

Just make sure and ask yourself, is it worth taking a chance on all the hard work picking stock and getting your setup stable you have done? I would almost rather recommend going with something like "trout pellets", and even they can WREAK HAVOC on your water quality.

My opinion only, keep us posted, and GOOD LUCK!
 
I don't see any risk other than it making a mess. I'm willing to bet this is a whole lot better for the fish than that Wardley soybean meal food for pond fish.
 
not something I would do, not a good ideal to feed terrestrial foods to aquatic animals. IMHO

You may be very correct, BUT are you willing to be wrong?

As I stated, as long as you're willing to do whatever it takes to correct water quality issues (IF INCURRED), and hope that none of the fish get any bowel blockages, etc, hey, give it a shot!

I was just saying "I" personally wouldn't recommend....

Also, thats why I also would like for you to keep us updated if you DO try it. Heck, you might be onto something, but someone has to take the first RISKY STEP right?
 
Just tried it. The bass ate it like they normally do. Arowanas spit it out a couple times and the two silvers swallowed one or two. It really wasn't messy at all either.

well lets hope they can poop it out,
 
The protein is mighty low for carnivorous fish
