Curios...Does anyone else feed their fishies krill?

I got some krill from my LFS yesterday, my platies absolutely LOVE it. But then again, they eat everything. My neon loves it too, surprisingly. He won't eat flakes/crisps, so its a pain when feeding time comes, the platies are real food hogs . The danios could care less honestly. But yeah, wondered if anyone else fed their fish krill. I don't even know why I got it, it was right next to the brine shrimp that I've been meaning to get...

I feed my fish freeze dried krill, pre-soaked but only as a treat twice a week. They LOVE IT. I order mine from Dr.s Foster and Smith or from That Fish Place . com So much cheaper than in a pet store (if you can find it there at all). I think the fish actually know when they are getting the treat (krill) compared to when they get their regular daily supplement. I show the fish the containers all the time. They splash me!

I've not done Krill but do regularly give live bloodworm and I have a 30ltr tank set aside to grow my own daphnea that get fed to the tanks as well once or twice a week.

I don't feed my fish krill since it's linked to lock jaw in puffers (particularly porcupines). Not sure if it has the same effect with other fish though.

omega one krill and flakes are my "lazy day" diets...when i either work a 12 hour shift, or get home late, thats the food of choice (my choice) instead of unthawing their regular diet...although my bettas wont eat it as fast as their live foods, I know they dont go without because of my schedule....all my other fish love it (cichlids, tropicals etc)
