Handfeeding home made carp food - YouTube
Last year I whipped up a batch of homemade food that the fish loved and appeared to do well with it, etc. I tried recollecting all the ingredients and looked at pics from when I was making it and came up with this list. All veggie stuff (they get insects and algae from the pond) so the food is vegetarian (my only requirement). I added cauliflower based on someone's suggestion.
Brocolli
Hemp hearts
chlorella tablets
spirulina tablets
raspberries
strawberries
garlic 6 cloves (last year I used 4)
full sweet potato
carrots
frozen peas
spinach
Linseed (flaxseed) oil
oats/rolled oats
Agar agar to give it that rubbery flexibility
New additions this year
cauliflower
Anyone have any other contributions?
