Regular Member eather.hey Posted June 22, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted June 22, 2004 I buy many kinds of commercial goldfish food to keep a variety in my fish' diet. Well, all these containers were taking up too much space on the top of the tank and I thought they were starting to look cluttered. So I bought this little bamboo box and put them in there. They fit at first, but I ran out of room with all the half-full bags and canisters of food. So what I did was bought one of those Rubbermaid containers that are meant to put juice in (tall and skinny with a flip top drink opening). I emptied all the different kinds of food in there and mixed it all up. Now when I feed my fish, all I have to do is pop the top and shake the canister, and my fish get a variety of food every time I feed them. It's been convenient and the container will probably keep the food fresher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ralph Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 well me have been doing tht for quite awhile. i believe it's a very good idea. juz a thing to add, make sure the expiry date of the different goldfish food falls near each other. so as to aid u in the time to dispose them should the expiry date arrive.

Regular Member mailboxck Posted June 23, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted June 23, 2004 Cool! I never thought it was a really good idea before because I've been doing it for months. I would always buy all sorts of food for my fish and get tired choosing which food i'd feed them for a day. So what i did was to dump em all into one bucket, mix it a lot and pour em into separate containers. I try to balance the mix sometimes by mixing low protien food with growth enhancing pellets and all the other stuff so that my fish would get a balanced diet.

Regular Member Devs Posted June 23, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted June 23, 2004 Hey,mixing it all together sounds like the goldies get treats everyday!!! With every bite they take,it's like "Surprise"--Great idea!!!! Maybe a mod can move it to submit it,or do youhave to do it yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
