Hi everyone. Im a new member of MFK, but have been browsing and utilizing your forums for years... Tons of great info here. Anyways, anyone have any home recipes for clown loaches? Have a young pack in a 180, anywhere from 2-4 inchest. Currently feeding varied diet consisting of store bought pellets, f/t bloodworms, zuccini, algae wafers, homemade "beef"heart - no beef just seafood, and occasionally raw whole scallops. They do well, but looking for other ideas. the store-bought pellets dissolve and idk how much they actually get. The beefheart mix is good, but even though its a solid gelatin mix they still tear it apart and make a mess.
They most enjoy raw scallops, which are also the least messy... they tear into it for a while, afterwords i remove any uneaten portion. tank stays clean and they get fat and happy. Scallops are obviously salt water... is there a concern of too much sodium in scallops? Is this a reasonable stable food or does it lack alot of other nutrients they need?
Anyways, anyone have any recipes for home-made clown loach food or other food ideas to help them grow and be healthy?
thanks!
