Fasting once a week while they are juvis?

They might like swaii? it's also white and flaky. and a lot cheaper than tilapia. Probably not as nutrient dense though.

I havent try that.

Swai is an iridescent type shark/catfish (pangasius hypophthalmus) I don't use them personally because they appear to have in high sodium, fatties than tilapia, and float when frozen. My polys don't like it and only eat it if starving.

When you are feeding tilapia or any other meaty food you can feed them every other day. But if you are feeding pellets like hikari carnivore, you can feed them everyday and just skip one day. Since I noticed that they are more likely to poop a lot with the pellets. Keep in mind that its better less than too much when feeding. Hope this helps

that definitely helps. Good to know about feeding less. Typically I feed my fish every other day. Have never kept polys before, so it's good to know I can still do that. Thanks for the specific info! Right now I just started tilapia. Alternating between that and pellets. Still feeding every other day.

Vancouver_98683 , Thanks man. Now I definitely won't buy it. I guess if I don't like swai, I shouldn't make my poly eat it. lol. That's why he's getting the Publix Tilapia. Their tilapia is nice.
