dunl Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 First of all, let's try to keep things civil, and keep the personal insults out of this, okay? As for feeding for entertainment, I like to watch my aquatic life make a kill. Why? Not because I want to see something ripped apart, but that I like to watch them do what they were designed to do, and perform a function that is normally seen only in nature.

Ichthyosporidium Posted September 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 My whole point to starting this thread was to point out that feeding live foods is alright. I just think that the care given to live foods should be the best possible, prior to being fed. It's enough that the organisims will meet their fate in a short time without making their last days as miserable as possible. I equate this to beef producers who give their livestock more than enough room to grow with high quality feed and clean conditions. So that the cattle are healthier overall which in turn produces a better product for consumption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 I do not live feed. Nothing that I keep requires it, and anything that might, well - is far above my current grasp of aquarium knowledge. I would avoid live feeding where possible.
