'Homemade Fish Food Flakes'

'Playlist of videos about fish food:  I picked up some earthworms on streets of New York after rain. Earthworms are natural fish food that I add in fish food flakes. Video about earthworm in aquarium: https://youtu.be/U7x5fw6-vSM Also, I add any fresh or frozen seafood, shrimp, fish, green vegetables, leaves, or peels of vegetables and fruits from my kitchen. Even watermelon rinds ;)   But first, I add whatever growth in my aquariums. Check all plants in my aquariums: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO6zK3JC2rE&list=PLM88hGt0AfGvdY1rnqapi-0wLa0LUFgSG Duckweed, Elodea, pond snails, and etc. Then I add all other ingredients.  Put all ingredients in a blender. I used to add potato starch as a binder to hold ingredients together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2PVDHlZ5rQ&list=PLM88hGt0AfGvUQ-4DbtP2M9tbLJZhCoGj Potato peels have enough starch for that purpose ;) I add new ingredients in different proportions every time to see what my pets may like better. That is a beauty of homemade food! All my homemade fish food: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2PVDHlZ5rQ&list=PLM88hGt0AfGvUQ-4DbtP2M9tbLJZhCoGj Add a glass of dechlorinated water: https://youtu.be/8ItBA19CrtQ or more if necessary to make the blending easier. Blend it all together very thoroughly. Here comes the most interesting part. I make fish food flakes without oven! Pour the prepared blend on plastic lids of food boxes. I buy food in those boxes at Costco, Whole foods, and similar food stores. Spread the mixture in even layer. And let it dry. It takes 1-2 days for mixture to dry at normal room temperature. The well dried mixture peels effortlessly from plastic lid. I crush the dried fish food between my fingers into desirable size flakes and put it in a box. Store the fish food flakes in a dry cool dark place as any normal dry food.  It could be stored as it is for over an year. Though, I prefer to make small batches of fish food every other month or so. Give the usual amount of flakes to your pets at normal feeding time: https://youtu.be/eKDWgUO4VsM Watch how your pets respond to it. It should take a couple minutes or so for your fish to eat everything you give them. Otherwise you may need to reduce the amount of food and/ or skip the next feeding.   Overfeeding is often the cause of most problems in aquariums. Have fun and happy aquariums :) Blog:  More fun on my website www.fewdoit.com Views as Money: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03hgIT4HTiE'
