Making Your Own Fish Food? Should you?  

Is feeding your aquarium fishes homemade food a good idea? There is more to it then it looks for feeding any fish whether it be freshwater tropical, cold water or temperate fishes. Homemade fish diets might not meet the nutritional requirements for aquarium fishes missing out on major vitamins and minerals along with lacking maybe the right amino acids. Fish diets are much more complex then they get credit for.
