I've always just given my fish a variety of fish food, flakes, pellets, krill, bloodworms, beefhearts, you know all common fish foods. However, I hear all the time about people giving their fish [like an Oscar which I also have]...different human type foods...I'd llike to venture into new type foods for fish like...Oscar, Frontosa, Green Severum, Pacu, Red Tail Cat. What is the most un-common food you've given a fish?
 
I've never fed my fish anything really unusual. The most uncommon is probably little centipedes I find sometimes.
 
try slugs. the topic popped up on here a week opr two ago, and it was apparently agreed that the fat little slimey buggers would make a nice little food source

maybe not a human food (in this country) but certainly rank on the strange-meter
 
I used to have this metal frame tank with no lid(found it on the sidewalk,put out for trashday)and in it I kept a wolf fish,went to bed and the next morning I came down to see the butt end of a mouse sticking out of the wolf"s mouth.It must have fallen in during the night and it took a while before the tail disapeared.

My Oscars never liked slugs,they would spit them out and then ignore them altogether.
 
Slugs Really?? I'm sure my oscars would turn their noses up at that, i bought meal worms from a guy the other day who told me that his oscars love Macdonalds an KFC :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:. It cant be very good for them besides that they wolud have to grow legs and beat me up to get at my KFC LOL.
 
Do hotdogs count? I feed my loaches and sevs with those occasionally.
