    So I have my lion who loves live anything.

    I have slowly have it eating smelts and other small fish. When I buy these small frozen fish, aside from the soak to remove phosphates is there anyway of adding nutrition to them.

    I soak my frozen food in garlic extract. There are a # of commercially available "vitamin soaks" for added nutrition.

    Soak it in Selcon too. Garlic will make it more appealing to him, and the selcon will give him the nutrients.
