Default Bait minnows as feeder fish???


"Cookie" wrote in message
om...
Just wondering if it would be potentially bad to feed bait minnows
(i.e. crappies, fat heads) as feeder fish to a oscar that is too big
for rosey reds but too small for comets. Also, how about the worms at
bait shops? A heck of a lot cheaper than at the petstore. I have a
strong suspicion that this may be bad (disease), any thoughts? Anyone
tried this?

BTW, I only feed live feeders as a "treat" once a week.

There is no difference between bait shop worms and those at a fish store.
Usually the same supplier provides both. As far as minnows, a friend has
been feeding his snakeheads minnows for 5 years now. No problems.
