I have being experimenting with feeding my fish some of the stuffs I
eat. Here are some results:

I have Danios, Platies, Swordtails, Gouramis and others. I found that
mushed peas were surprising well received. Broccoli and zucchini were
eaten but without much enthusiasm. I shredded a mid-sized shrimp and
threw it in my 2 tanks and it was consumed within 2 days. The swords
and platies loved the shrimp. My 2 Blue Gouramis seem to the least
picky of my fishes. I really love my Gouramis, too bad I can't keep
more than one per tank.

If it took your fish 2days to eat it you fed them too much. In water at
25C that is teeming with bacteria and funghi by what magic did you stop
the stuff from rotting?

You over-estimated the speed at which food decompose. 2 days is not
enough for purification to take full effect. Besides, the food was
cooked and not raw to start with. It takes a while for the
decomposition to take full effect. You can perform simple experiments
to verify my theory, but of course I doubt if you have the intellect
to do so.

Oh, do you also know that fish have immune system? I doubt that was a
recent discovery.
