thanks for making me figure it out.
around 50 a month
4lbs market shrimp
4 packs of brine shrimp
around 30 dozen fathead minnows
and a ton of mosquito fish i net "free"
I refuse to calculate it. i know I spend about 50 bucks every 2 weeks on prepared foods alone. Then I'd have to add fresh frozen and live foods. I need a drink!
I spend 0-5. I have a bunch of food at my house. I use shrimp pellets, krill(frozen and FD) and basically thats it. Of and zuccini for my plecos. I use my FD krill about 3 times a day, so Ill be running out of that around every 3 weeks. Good thing I only have baby monsters. lol.
I load up twice a year with my wife's 30% discount at work, buy a couple cans and bags between, then random grocery store food (beefheart, bait shrimp...) I would say if I had to spread it out across the year....average 10-15 a month. My fish are still far from grown though.
