How do you present the food to the cricket and what food do you use or does it depend on the fish?

Well i found this on gut loading crickets for gekos. im not sure if fish are the same but here it is.
So what can you feed crickets?
1.Gut load- they sell this powder at almost every petstore. It contains calcuim and other vitamins and minerals. I personally never have used this, but I heard that it work well.
2. Orange slices- provides water for the crickets and provides vitamin C.
3. Any common leafy greens (except spinach- for obvious resons).
4. PLAIN oatmeal.
5. Several other fruits and veggies.
6. Water-*If you r not going to use oranges for your main water source then soak a spounge and place it in the cricket tank. DO NOT use a water bowl. ---The crickets will drown.

Also they have this gel stuff you can use that provides water,calcium and all that outher good stuff.
Yea, I am gonna be feeding my arowana. So, I would just stick the carrot in with the crickets or what?
I also heard that you just soak the fish food and put it in with the crickets and they will eat it.
Is this true?

When I had a chameleon I used to feed my crickets puppy food and oranges... They'd be fat as hell and the chameleon really thrived... I used calcium dips once in a while, but i'm not sure if that's necessary if you're feeding your fish with them..
