Poly food prep

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I used to thaw and cut with kitchen scissors. I like the food processor idea that fred uses, esp. for smaller polys/ropes but have not done it myself.

here is the video I promised sorry for the glare I didn't know that when you record a video with the flash is turned to on it would stay on in video mode and I had already thrown the tilapia in so it was too late

 
Sorry i cant make a video, kinda hard to prep food/cut tilapia and hold a camera to make a video at the same time, but this is i make my poly food.

Step 1, defrozed the fillet, i defrozed mine by just leaving it in the counter for 15-30 min.E76DA8D0-39CC-48D2-A171-FB0482D7F367.jpeg

Step 2. I slice the tilapia in a thin layers.

Step 4, i cut the strips into a dice size and small enough for my polys to eat.

Feeding time

Its really up to the person how they prep the food, some people do it differently.
Sorry for the long feeding video;)

It is totally up to the person doing it you are correct. There is no wrong or right way. It's just consistently a question I see asked. So thought this would be a great idea.
I guess I should have done a little more on how I used water bottles to hold my phone while I made my video......lol.
Thanks for the step by step!

That's how I do it except I use the whole fillet. Slice strips then cut into smaller chunks
