Which of these feeder fish are best?

[krichardson]

I think carp are in the group of fish with high levels of thiaminase, which causes vitamin B1 deficiency in fish if fed too much too often.

I thought that also.

That being said, I wish that we could go to a baitshop or something around here and just pick up snakeheads. I would definitely have one. Not allowed in Wisconsin though.

....or anywhere else in our country.

the red tilapia should be good and above all cheap too. People here always feed tilapia fillets so the live thing should be even better if they dont have parasties and such. And u could get them and breed them yourself too

I agree on the talapia. Humans and fish love talapia.

I agree with just feed pellets. Don't feed your fish for a week and they will take pellets.
