i was wondering if i could freeze minnows and thaw them out later to feed my fish. minnows are cheaper than silversides and thats all my fish will eat. would the minnows being frozen still carry any germs or parasites that could harm my fish. thanks
 
I go out in the early summer and seine minnows and bag / freeze them for later use. Havent had any issues.
 
Yup! you sure can. I would put them in a cup or bowl at room temp to let them thaw out.
