I dont think we can compare human diets to fish diets to any degree. Fish eat poo! Generally that is inadvisable for people! ha ha
 
Never used Hikari Gold before. Just ordered two packages from Drsfostersmith. I don't care one bit that it might contain MSG. It contains a whole bunch of other stuff that I don't want to eat, why should I care about MSG being in there?

Non issue. I'm starting to think this guy is the equivalent to the Chewlies Gum Rep in Clerks....

that's what i've been trying to say.....from his logic humans and fish diet are the same and we react the same to it...so should i give my arowana some chocolate and ice cream? :screwy:
 
Yes, our diets are different- but fish eat poo in their natural environment. I don't believe there is MSG coarsing through the Amazon. I believe as pet owners, it is our responsibility to keep their diets as close to natural as possible- and MSG being a particularly NASTY preservative is definitely not natural.
 
I was going to apologize but after what you guys have said about me i changed my mind.
 
CBKurt, it's not that I (can't speak for anyone else) don't want to agree with you, I personally just need some kind of evidence. Just because it's bad for some people, doesn't mean it's bad for fish.

For instance, dogs and cats are very allergic to chocolate and human pain medications...
 
I agree with simon, show us some proof. If you can i will be the first one to change my feeding but until then the buffet line for them is still open for my fish.

:iagree:

I'm definatly not flaming you. You're entitled to your opinion, and I'm no one to judge... But my fish really love the food. They definatly avoid food I give them they don't like. So if they didn't like it, they wouldn't eat it. They love the stuff.

As far as feeding them stuff they will find only in their habitat... The manufactured stuff we can feed them in captivity is probably way better than what they would eat in the river...
 
Okay i apologize and i searched the net till i was satisfied (and bored) and couldn't find anything. But i m still not going to feed my fish it.

that's what i'm sayin...be careful in dispensing info....and make sure you have the facts first to back up your claims.

if you don't want to feed your fish Hikari products IT"S YOUR CHOICE...no one is FORCING you to do it. ;)
