Repashy fish foods

[Deadeye]

Does the water need to be boiling to form a gel?

Hey Deadeye ,
You could dunk this on rocks like peanut butter. It would probably be good for your Puffers teeth. Aquarium Co-op sells Rapashy. They sell 6oz jars for $16.

Yeah and it makes your kitchen smell great lol

My wife "loves" the smell of fresh Repashy in the morning.

Yes.

Got it today! Trial run time. I think tonight I’ll make a small amount and see if they will even touch it, and then I can make it in bulk with added cuttlebone tomorrow.

One loved it, one was interested and ate a bit, but didn’t understand that it was food.
The third I can barely get to eat anything, hopefully he follows suit and acclimates to prepared food.

2/3 had a strong response to it today! The last one was sort of interested.
It’s crazy, I never would have expected them to take to prepared foods this quickly.

The food looks so much like pudding...if I was feeling mean I could have so much fun lol.

The longer you keep Repashy uncovered in the fridge, the stiffer it gets, and I get less dispersal of it in water from fish that can swallow the chunks I cut. I prefer not to cut it until day 5 in the fridge

Huh, I've theorized but never heard of feeding repashy to puffers before. I bet you could glue clam shells together with it to give them a real workout...

I mostly feed Repashy to my cory cats, oto cats (soilent green), and other nano fish (Spawn & Grow).

Good to know! I’ll cut it up in a few days then (currently just a whole bunch in a foam coffee cup).

I’m gonna try all kinds of things for them. Mixing cuttlebones and it together, stuffing shells, coating rocks. I like the “fake clam” idea!
