Healthy Recipe For Our Little Ones (fish)

This recipe has every thing to keep your fish healthy and you save alot of money!!! Found it on the net.

INGREDIANTS

500 grams (1 pound) beef heart
350-500 grams (3/4-1 pound) chicken livers
1 can of shelled green peas
1 large carrot cooked until slightly tender and pureed
1 small packet of frozen spinach (150-200g) (drained of all excess liquid)
200 grams (1/2 pound) of prawns (without the shell)
1 cup of fish food pellets crushed (soak this in some warm water to blend easier)
5-8 cloves of peeled garlic, crushed and minced/pureed
2-3 packets of unflavoured gelatin to bind ( more may be used if a firmer consistency is required)
2-3 good quality multivitamin ground to powder

METHOD

Everything except the gelatin needs to be minced or put in the food processor and made into a mince-like consistancy. Do the meat seperate and then cobine all in a mixing bowl. It's ok to blend all the veggies together. Once everything is blended up, combine it all in a bowl. add the crushed fish food. Dissolve the gelatin in a little water (as little as possible) then also add.
Mix thoroughly. Line a backing tray with backing paper. Spread the mix evenly on the trays at around1/4"(5mm) thickness. Place two layers of backing paper over the mix and keep repeating until the tray is full. Allow to set up in the refrigerator, when firm score with the back of a knife into equal serving size portio9ns. Freeze. Once frozen break portions up and store in a container in the freezer. DO NOT ADD CORN AS IT IS INDIGESTABLE TO FISH AND CAUSES PROBLEMS!!

Interesting contribution.
I have found contradictory/mixed opinions on using beef heart and/or chicken liver for fish. I do remember, in the old days (1970s) feeding Bettas and Gouramis with chicken organs (not just liver). I had a wild tilapia (not sure about the spelling) in a pond once who loved such treats (ended giving that fish away, very aggressive). If you ever use this recipe, please post about it.
