Can I give my Jack Dempsey some roast beef?

[rmorse]

I'm just sitting here enjoying a wonderful dinner, and my fish tank is behind me. Would it be bad to tear off a couple pieces of roast beef for my Jack?

bad idea, isn't something that will be easy to digest for the fish

Ok. Just wondering, cuz he is begging....


What about a pea?

yeah, people feed their fish veggies. He might not eat it though. Usually they feed raw ones I think though.

Man just be sure its something that doesn't have any additives.. Especially salts! Or pepper.

Wow that's great advice. Let's all feed our fish some greasy sausage and shorten their lifespan because the fish is willing to eat it.

You out of regular fish foods?

I have heard of some people using 100% lean ground beef.

My fishes beg for food all the time, just never had the thought of feeding them roast beef
