    Hi All

    What do you guy feed your fish other than the daily pellets? What do they go mad for?

    Dried Mealworm from Wilkinsons @ £1 a bag - Scared of them at first, now can't get enough of them. Very high protein.

    Banana

    Only 1 of mine liked Silkworm Pupae, they were expensive too, most of the bag will end up going to waste.

    Have Mussels in the freezer and will try them over the Weekend.

    I give them Silkworm Pupae and Dried Shrimp - switched to Chubby Mealworm as the supplier. I was concerned as they are cheap. The Pupae have a very strong smell - plus the Shrimp are mostly shrimp, with lots of very small fish, crab (whole and pieces) etc - the Koi love them, and are flourishing

    The meal worms are they just the bird feeder ones . Sorry for silly question just didn't dare put them in in case they were mixed with some thing

    Feed ours prawns, mussels, mealworm & watermelon. Have tried quite a few things but these always get devoured.
