Feeding Oscars Frozen Food

[Tahn]

Is it safe for Oscars to eat frozen food? By frozen I mean, temperature wise. Obviously it is safe to feed them blood worms, but I always wondered if I could drop in a frozen cube right out of the freezer. I usually break it up in tank water and then drop it in, but is it safe to just throw in the frozen cube?

I don't see an issue with it I've done it only downside is oscars have big mouths so they will take 1 whole cube to themselves so it doesn't really get distributed as well as if you defrosted it first but absolutely I don't think it's a problem at all I've done it before with my fish even with the cubed brine shrimp nothing happened to them so I assume it's fine

My Oscars used to eat frozen peas with no ill effects.
