Hi All

Has someone gave there fish egg?? If so do I give the yolk or white ?I've read that you can give egg to fish but one says white and one says yolk?

Thanks a lot !:thanks:
 
Sometimes, cooked egg yolks are fed to tiny new born fish. Yolks are rich in protein and fat. I wouldn't bother with trying to feed yolks to adult fish since there are so many more food options available.

I have heard of that but it sounds really messy to me. If your trying to feed tiny fry instead just crush up pellets really small into a powder
 
You can always feed them fruits and veggies they can eat pretty much any of them. I prefer using fruits and veggies high in carotene like spinach and sweet potatoe i usually boil the sweet potatoes so they are soft

I've fed my fish egg yolks but it is messy so you need to do constant water changes.
