Feeders are thr very unresponsiable fish keepers food! They are trash. Dont use them its not worth it. And pellets dont have nutrition? Idt so. Massivor is amazing and the best supplement for big carnivors. Also danichi is really good providing way more vitimans then any frozen stuff will give. I do use shrimp as a treat tho
Yeah fish is still alive. Swimming around and happy. Always in full freshwater. I had for 6months then gave to a friend a month ago. Im not saying im right or anything. Just saying this is my exsperiance with them
Yeah, if you want to do feeders please atleast breed your own so you aren't another victim of introduced disease. If you want to do live offer a varied diet, not just comets. Do shrimp, crafish, black worms, earth worms, etc...
I only feed mine feeders on occasion to keep him happy. IMO, A fish like that would much rather hunt his food than just have it handed to him.
Most of what I feed mine is raw foods, mostly shrimp. All of which I let soak in a vitamin supplement while defrosting.
As for pellets; you're right about Massivor. Normally when I think of pellet food, I think of the cheap, empty, food designed only to fill the fish. I've never used any quality pellet foods before, so that was my mistake.
As for keeping toadfish in freshwater. They can be kept in full FW for some time, more or less depending on several factors. 6 months is not uncommon, neither is a year or two. Some people have had success with long-term FW toads also, but that is very rare.
The only way to ensure a happy, healthy toadfish is to keep it in brackish water, or even full marine like I do.
Is it possible? Yes, but very unlikely. It's very risky, and that's why most peoples' die; it's a risk I surely wouldn't want to take though
Correct, however...these guys are TINY. The combo would never work with an oscar.
And with an oscar feeders almost insure HIT. But then again, an oscar almost insure HIT.

I agree with you! Also soaking food in vitamins like vitachem has been very benificial to my fish keeping. Healthier happier more beautiful fish.

Thats max size. Snookn was selling them a while back. I almost bought 3 or 4. They hide ALL the time too. Buried in the sand with only those little eyes poking out.
