Anyone ever feed their fish Salmon eggs? You know the kind people go fishing with. Is there anything bad about feeding to your fish? How nutritious is it?

I kinda wanna try it because I know fish love eggs. But I dont know much about Salmon eggs, how nutritious they are and if they are even good to feed to aquarium fish. Would I just buy the salmon eggs that people go fishing with?
don't the fishing ones have some type of chemical enhancement to attract the fish or something i don't think i would feed my fish eggs for fishingPyramid_Party;2426615; said:
Yeah, thats a concern. Im just seeing what others have to say. If thats the case, then what other alternatives do I have? Is there a way to obtain some eggs, even if its other fish eggs to feed my fish?
I wouldn't use the bait eggs because those are loaded with preservatives and scent enhancing chemicals. A pricey way to obtain eggs would be to buy sushi grade eggs. This would work for salmon eggs, but I believe the smaller orange ones used as a garnish on the outside of rolls might be salted. The cheapest way to obtain eggs is by fishing or buying freshly caught fish. You get a meal of it, and so do your fish. Here the concern is parasites or contaminants though.
