our ability to discuss issues, reach a concensus of the majority and
give good advice to those looking for it......it matters not a jot what
one person feeds their fish....if they are happy with it then that is up
to them, even if most disagree....if the concensus is that it might not
suit all then that should be the prevailing result of the
discussion....but someone might choose to just see the cheap option and
disregard anyone else but that is their perogative....Now, if we feel or
believe that advice given is wrong then we as equally valid members of
the group have the right to correct this......giving our
opinions.....and these should not or cannot be invalidated by someone
whose experience is different.....but afterall it is up to the one
asking the question to decide what is good or bad advice....

Keeping in mind what may be excellent advice for a ponder in Florida may not
be for someone in Wyoming.

Keeping in mind what may be "correct" for one set-up, may not be for
another. No one seems to be pointing that out but me!

Exactly. Plus the fact after all the contraversy here anyone out there
using the cheaper feeds will surely keep silent and who can blame them? ;-)

Telling someone what you feed your fish isn't giving advice to the
masses?!?!?!?!

that is so contrary to what others are
saying....

Others may have a totally different set-up.

but then, it does give good room for discussion, I guess. ~ jan

What a boring world if everyone agreed with everyone else and everyone had
the same ponds, the same fish, in the same climate with the same filters and
the same natural resources available to the fish........ there would be no
need to discuss anything. :-O

Twsit it how you want to twist it, mix it how yu want to mix it, what
you say still comes out stating the same thing...your a cheapass who
took a chance on the unethical feeding of thre koi and since they are
still alive and yu have not spent as much $$ as yu normally whould
have to with proper feeds yo theorized its a proper food source now,
so therefore according to your house rules its an acceptable
method.WRONG.....its imorale to feed improper food to the speices.
plain and simple.......being that they are not human and even if they
were there is a point when anything thing will virtually eat anything
just to stay alive.........after all POWs lied on leather from the
soles of shoes as well as bark from tree's....was it good for them,
Nooooooo, did it sustain their life..yes,,,,,,,,,my one dog eats goat
crap, so is that then considered a viable source of food, because if
it is I am gonna save a heap of money as I have lots of goat crap
around.

Your really beyond boring IMNSHO
