    Re Post: Variety is the spice of life...


    Made a real haul at the market today, while shopping for my frozen fish food needs.

    Instead of earlier charging me by the piece price...store manager gave me some of "everything" for "scrap" price of $.99 lb. (did have to promise him pic of tank, I guess to prove I was not making cracker dip or somesuch for self - :p)

    Fresh:

    Salmon
    Halibut
    Shrimp
    Squid
    Octopus
    Scollop

    Added:
    Nori
    Broccoli
    Garlic

    Enough to last me 3+ months.

    Can't even begin to compare how much cheaper then buying commercial frozen fish food mix.


    ;D

    ug, the thought of the smell alone while chopping it up is enough to get me to the LFS.

    I can't imagine mine eating that though.

    Good extra mile though, kudos.


    \Cheers

    Well... I've watched them go after stuff I wouldn't put in MY mouth:eek:

    Seriously, After your last post regarding DIY food, I tried !it also. How do you determine when it's chopped enough? With a food processor, one second it's solid, next thing you know it's mush

    Do you notice a rise in your PO[SUB]4[/SUB]'s feeding so much frozen food??

    Or do you run a reactor?
