Re: KillieTalk Digest V1 #19



Good morning ,

Just wanted to throw this out for comment. What about paste foods ? What
about minerals . 
 
I feel that enriching the BBS is a good idea ,healthy food makes better
killies .
The drawback is it has some very hard limits , like what and how much
are the BBS actualy a vehical for .

Paste food (to me) is a much better way of getting specialized
nutritional elements into the fish . Using agar as a binder has a
plus,since it is made from a seaweed it provides trace minerals .Mineral
suplements seem to be one of the most over looked / under rated items in
killie nutrition . The addition of zeolite (the ammonia remover) or
latralite (?spelling) have remarkable effects on growth , health . Also
,  at the time I was playing around with trying to find a cure for the
skewed sex ratio of Rivulus Xiphidius .
Of all the wacky things I did ,The addition of minerals seemed to
increase fertility or maybe more correctly , made a healthier egg .
 
Respectfuly ,
