Feeding your fish ant eggs

[lazyNode]

I came across this strange article http://www.theaquariumwiki.com/Ant_eggs

Has anyone tried feeding their fish ant eggs?

I found a nice colony of black ants in my front yard, and I keep digging up their egg nest when I do the weeding.

I'm very tempted ... but I would like to hear your opinions first before I try.

I'd be concerned about contaminants from the soil. if it's safe in principle I'd say try for an ant farm or something so you can be sure no pesticides or other contaminents make it into your tank.

i dont see a problem with it, besides getting swarmed by ants.

there are probably other better choices though.

to much work but theyd probably be healthy

Well while I'm out weeding the garden, and accidently digging up ant nests. I might as well try a few small eggs. I googled it and some people even feed ants to their fish!
