Nothing surprising. All Russian tourists feed the fish in the Red Sea with buns, and there is a spectacle happening, with one cubic meter of fish worth a million bucks. True, not all fish eat bread, but surprisingly, fish like Parrotfish, which bite the reefs with their teeth, simply ignore the bread and live under the pontoons, waiting for scraps while sneezing at the corals.

That's why I decided to organize such an event. By the way, weren't the surgeons given boiled corn? They love it too...

What is the reason for the interest in "non-native feeds"? And what, for example, prevents feeding with "native" feeds?

Sometimes it happens that there aren't enough macrophytes for the surgeons, and their appetite for macrophytes is insatiable. Meanwhile, I have no lower plants in my fish tank. So I have to resort to unconventional plant feeds. By the way, blanched lettuce and cabbage are also adored by the surgeons...

So this is a more acceptable "substitute" for the lack of natural growths than experimenting with bread.

I don't really conduct them... I just feed them with plant-based food, and that's it. I haven't observed any harm from bread, quite the opposite—angels, butterflies, and surgeons have turned into huge, beautiful fish, and they are already 5-6 years old since I got them. I've been giving them bread for over a year now. As they say, man does not live by bread alone; it's just a supplementary feed, while the main ones are: gammarus, artemia, shrimp, mollusks, as well as dry, freeze-dried food for marine fish. Sometimes I finely chop some Azov bullhead, and they have never refused it either, especially the triggerfish.

Maybe it's better to use not white bread, but "rough" bread made from bran or three or four grains?

500% Offtopic The truth is that they are currently chasing people off the beaches for this; as soon as they see it, the beach manager runs over and drives everyone away. The reason: small fish - big fish - shark (at least that's what they say). Once, they closed the beaches while I was there, claiming there were a lot of jellyfish, but there were just as many the next day.

Maria

I haven't seen jellyfish as beautiful as in your photo, but there were small ones like the Black Sea jellyfish, and some fish would tear them to shreds. It would be great to introduce some fish in the Black Sea that would eat jellyfish...

That's right, Seryozha, and I've tried it, they eat...

There is no spinach in the market, it's not the season, I couldn't try it, but I gave cilantro instead, the surgeons eat very well.
