So I got bored today and made some fish food. It's got beef heart, clams, squid, octopus, scallops, shrimp, cuttlefish, krill, and cichlid flakes. I'm thinking next time I'll add peas, crickets, and maybe some vitamins, any thoughts?

Id eat that any day sounds like something theyd serve in france or somthing lol.

Minus the fish flakes I hope

Sounds like someones oscar is getting very spoiled!
Good combo of food, allthough i never heard of cuttlefish as food.
did you allready try if your oscar liked your cooking skills?

WOW
you your O is gunna be one spoilt lil brat =]

I put some in last night and they ate it, then I put a little more in and they fought over it. All the fish like it except the Bichir.

are you going to process them first or give it to the oscar as is????
remove the cichlid flakes and i will be happy eating them all

to be honest, i had tried making some fish food by mixing several
good ingredients like shrimp, beefheart, cichlid booster, and green
peas. i mixed an blended them together, then add some binding ingredients
and thinly spread in a cloth and steam them together. sliced it to cube
bite size and feed to my fishes.... they love it but take more of my
time for preparation... eventually, i feed everything as is with out
processing

Im with Paul, too much hassle making homemade food, easier to put the foods in separatley

I put it through the meat grinder, spread it out on a cookie sheet, and put it in the freezer.

i steamed it just to bind together, less mess when feeding....

i just feed them "as is" one at a time...
