I had some free time this afternoon and started looking into the ingredients of some of the fish food I have
Numerous seem to have ingredients such as:
fish & fish derivatives
fish meal
wheat meal
cereals
salmon meal
(to name a few)
I am trying to understand if a lot of these types of ingredients are just 'fillers' and have no nutritional benefit to the fish?
I'm currently keeping:
Corydoras Boesemani
Dicrossus Maculatus
Nannostomus Trifasciatus
Nannostomus Eques
Amapa Tetra
They are all wilds so I stick to a lot of live foods mixed in with the occasional naturekind advanced frozen fish food (as it was recommended to me years ago). My question is more to do with the dry foods I feed every now and again such as Tetra Pro Algae, Fluval Bug Bites etc
