Feeder Fish Q

Lol.... Excuse my ignorance.
How often can you safely feed guppies to Senegal Bichirs?
We are raising our own guppies. So I'm just curious. I know they need different foods.

Lol...I mean like how many times a week can you feed them guppies?
For instance- Is it harmful to feed guppies alot? Are they high in fat or anything? Cuz my two really like them!

It depends on how long u want to feed them..
There r a variety of other foods besides feeders... U could try market shrimp... Sinking pellets..etc..

 

[Angler]

As often as you want, especially if you are breeding your own. The guppies will just be dither fish until your senegals get hungry and catch them.

ok I just wanted to make sure it wasn't harmful to feed them often. Like I know goldfish have thiemese(sp?) or whatever and others like salmon are too high in fat.

Just go with a good quality pellet food can't go wrong ...

personally i dont like feeding live much.
but its really up to you.

i wouldn't feed feeders more than once a week. it's great that you're raising your own and that will be much healthier than buying them. make sure the guppies are well-fed before dropping them in.
