I just considered getting some and wanted opinions... also can goldfish have Tropical foods (flakes, pellets etc.?)

cheers then..

hi lozbug

i use tetra fresh delica bloodworm and brine shrimp (i did a write up on it in product reveiw) i also use tetra gold medal luxury goldfish food and happy with it all. myself i would not use tropical food for goldys but i know a lot of fish shops do

i have the luxury one too!!! Yeah!! they get freeze dried bloodworms/daphnia & tubifex.. but was think of a change of brand..

Read the ingredients on your pellets and flakes. I'll bet you'll be surprised at how much corn, wheat and soy are in even the best of them. I personally think that a diet of exclusively pellets and flakes isn't healthy. It'd be like you or me eating only fish sandwiches (highly processed protein and fast carbs) all the time. I think at minimum adding veggies/plants and the occasional fruit along with fresh protein would be a good thing.

they do have varied diet..

flakes
pellets
peas
bloodworm
tubifex
gel food
cucumber

i just like more and more food...

ooo I aint done mine cucumber yet... how do you prepare that for them then?

slice cucumber like you would for a salad, chop off the skin and cut out seeds.. then dice the rest of it.

It floats, but my Goldies love it.. (tropicals not too keen thou)
