Cool that's the ingrediant's for future monster's for sure. Have you tried Freeze Dried or Frozen Krill?
They will hit the freeze drie krill a little .The frozen i have not tried yet.But i seem to recall someone saying the freeze dreid might puncture the stomach have you heard that?
Yea with Arow's. I would just soak it if that was a concearn. For me I never really worried about it (to much) I gave it a thought as well as feeding shrimp with the shell on but my P's (the larger ones) just spit the shell out most of the time or didn't eat the shrimp with the shell's on them. As for the krill never really had any issues with it. Just make sure the frozen is completely defrosted.
I never had thought about with my jardini. Have not had a problem he loves the freeze dried shrimp .But somebody was saying pinch the head off the freeze dried for the bass thats probly half the nutrients?
I wouldn' think that pinching away anything would decrease the intake of the nutirition or benifit's. It's the variety of diffrent nutrients were trying to give to our fish so I don't think it would be that big of an issue. I look at it as a plus just to offer them a full spectrum of there dietary need's.
Hulon you and have had some great conversations and so I will give you this bit of advice that I COMPLETELY have not been an advocate of. I will say this once your cichla are of size and age to stop feeding LFS/Chain pet stores feeders convert them off completely! I have never said this before and this will be the first time I have said this but yes I do now believe that raising your own feeders should be the only live option to feed Cichla after they reach the point where they no longer need feeders. I have been a strong advocate of keeping feeders as a regualr part of there diet and I still am but just not Gold Fish on any level. This is from my own personal experince and now say it's not worth it on any level.
