[tyndall72]

actually chicken livers cloud the tank and can be messy both my channel cats and bullhead take beefhearts diced into chunks not as messy and doesn't cloud the tank, ggod source of protein, I feed them crayfish-feeder goldfish- beefhearts and minnows.

cloudy from the waist? cuz my cat eats the hearts and livers whole lol. but how big of craw fish do you use?? I have used them a few times. How big of a craw fish do you think a cat can eat?

I only feed pellets and cleaned squid, fish filets, etc. My pond stays very clean, and the water is crystal clear. I don't feed feeders because it's not necessary and I already QT enough feeders for my one Florida Gar which refuses anything but live. When catfish eat anything, there's no reason to risk their health or waste time feeding them live foods, IMO.

No, OP, I stick to the squid, fish filets, and some different pellets. He's doing just fine.

I favor tilapia! 3.99 a pound, cut up into small pieces, doesnt cloud the water! My big RTC eats 2"x2" pieces and like 3 of 4 of them.
