Do the frozen fish food companies use any special method of freshing their food? When I look at mine it looks just like they took the stuff, mushed it up, and put in the the little plastic trays then toss it in your everyday freezer. I managed to find some icecube trays at the thrift shop today, with little spaces, about 1 cm cubed. Basically the same size as the frozen fish food cubes I found at the store. If I mushed up some peas and corn and meat etc, and sqashed it in to the trays, then freezer bagged them and tossed them in, would I not have some perfectly good fish food I could pop out anytime, minus the additives I presume go into the storebought stuff? Or would I be missing something critical? I'm getting this idea from the frozen dog diet, that involves making a big batch of veggies and meats, freezing it in containers, and thawing as needed. Wouldn't this be a cheaper alternative to feeding fish? Or a good addition to a diet of dried and live foods?
Oh, and the fish that I would be feeding are guppies, mini puffers, kuli loaches, white clouds, betta, angel fish, cory cats, cardinal tetras, glowlight tetras, raspbora, and the frogs would probably get some too. Oh and don't worry, all these fish are in assorted tanks, not all shoved in to one.
One more food question. Is there really a big difference between freshwater flae food and marine flake food? What would be the effects of feeding marine food to freshwater fish and visa versa?
