Do fish need anything to supplement their diet - like fishy vitamins? I saw something in a local pet shop that was a food supplement but is it needed?

I've never seen any fishy supplements (apart from Cod Liver Oil!!), but I would think that if you feed decent quality food, and give fruit and veggies as well, then they wouldnt need anything extra. There is a stickie on feeding fish, which might give you some info if you read it. Very Happy

I've said this before, i think a lot of those things are gimmicks. MOst fish foods have vitamins in them. And if you feed a varied diet they should get all the vitamins they need Very Happy

I think that if they have a varied enough diet with a mixture of flake, veg. and live foods, there's no need for anything else. Smile
