Freshwater Beginners A place where freshwater aquarium fish beginners can go to post their questions and hopefully get responses from those more experienced. Also check out the Freshwater Fish Beginner's Guide and Aquarium Setup Guides. Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

In summer times I put out a bucket of water (away from the house) and watch the Mosquitoes do their thing. I take a small net, scoop up some larva and ta da fish feeding frenzy.
I'll also hatch some baby brine in my fridge. You really don't need to worry about left overs of either one. Fishes love live food, they'll eat all day.
Depending on the size of the fish I also get some small earth worms, or even night crawlers. I have several tanks, small fish and large fish. Everyone eats!!!
Hope this helps...have fun!!

I feed earthworms, mosquitos, and although not live fresh squid and shrimp. All my fish love fresh/live food. Meal worms and crickets also are a big hit depending on the size of the fish! There are some really good recipes on the forum (Shawnie I think...) for food you can make yourself. Flakes/pellets every for fish is like pizza everyday for us (heard that somewhere...)
