Datnoid Food List

[Datnoid101]

I use Dainichi koi growth and XL. The montmorillonite clay in dainichi really helps to get some nice girth and height from your dats

I have added more foods to my Dat's diet to keep it varied, and since this thread was resurrected I might as well update my list.

I feed my Dats the following...

Market Shrimp
Frozen Krill
Frozen Silver Sides
Aquarian Shrimp Pellets
Hikari Sinking Carnivore
Hikari Massivore Delite
Hikari Sinking Wafers
Hikari Algae Wafers
Hikari Food Sticks
Hikari Cichlid Gold
Hikari Cichlid Bio-Gold+
Hikari Cichlid Staple
Hikari Cichlid Excel


And when smaller, they will also get...

Frozen Blood worms
Frozen Mysis Shrimp
Frozen Brine Shrimp

Tilapia Fillet is fairly cheap and readily available fresh and/or frozen in most grocery stores. Some other fish that might be good for dats are pollock, hake and flounder. Those are some fairly inexpensive white fish that aren't too fatty but I haven't tried feeding them to Tigerfish.

Lance fish can be bought from LFS for £10 to £15 per Kilo in the UK. But not all fish shops will sel it. Someone tod me it is quite close to the fish Tigers eat in the wild, although I have no way of knowing. I have no idea what Tigers eat in thewild, but my tigers love it. You can try white bait but it is very oily and can pollute water quick. Lance fish does this also, but not nearly as oily as w.bait.

Lance fish are usually sold in frozen flat packs like silversides. Apparently they have very fine bones and are easier to digest.
