DIY Cichla Pellets - Monster Fish Keepers Style!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Tryin it now, doesnt really smell bad :) bro what do you do with the fish paste sticking in the pan during the first 15 minutes? Im usin a teflon pan but stil stuck. Im afraid if i put a little oil my pellets will get all oily.
 
My fish ate the pellets already and are stuffed! Hopefully they wont react violently to the multivitamin powder i added. One question though, if the fishpaste with garlic powder and multivitanins are baked in the oven, will the heat or cooking affect the potency of the multivitamins?

Ha! Sounds like you did it and our fish took to it the first time you fed it like mine did! Good job :clap

No cooking doesn't effect the garlic or the vitamins added, unless you burn it I guess. My mixture didn't even come close to sticking to the pan but I used a lot of oily fish in my mix and probably the main reason why. Now depending on what you are putting in this will effect cooking time. temp etc... So you may need to cook at a lower temp or shorten the time in the oven. Number one thing you don't want to do it over cook or burn the mix.

Post a vid or a few pics of how yours turned out, like to see a feeding vid would be cool.

Good job! ;)

thrift store! get it on the cheap lol

and as far as the sticking wouldn't Pam or cooking spray work all it is oil. or even spread some butter on the pan or olive oil. or are these things too dangerous for fish?

IDK, if using those things would hurt to be honest. I'd say olive oil would be fine but wouldn't use butter or Pam.. But the fish oil works best for me that come straight from the fish paste itself, makes it so I don't have to worry about sticking. ;)
