How do we REALLY feel about feeding our fishes!

[silver]

Just thought I'd see how other people feel about feeding.

Personally, to me it's OkAY!! I love feeding my SDs peas and wafers, but the basic flake food is sooooo boring!!!

I like feeding my fish; my Tiger barbs go nuts when I put anything in the tank. If they're the slightest bit hungry, they're at the top of the tank within seconds of me opening the hood. Brine shrimp is even more fun. They're like little oarnge pirranahs.

Feeding time is great fun in my house, especially with the larger predators when they grab the food as it hits the surface narrowly missing my fingers and splashing me with water, its also enjoyable to sit up late at night with a red torch waiting for the elusive catfish that i keep to come out from hiding and have a midnight feast.

I love feeding my fish!! I only feed them every other day so it's not too much hassle.

I especially like giving them bloodworms as I hand feed them and it's lovely to interact with them. Strange that I like doing that with me being vegetarian.

Tetras w/skirts are fun to feed anything. They dart to the surface and back down super-fast. I see a white trail and hear a splash.

I find feeding the best time to take a role count and look for any signs of problems with the fish. Otherwise feeding doesn't mean much to me either way, I don't get any particular enjoyment out of it, but it's nothing I don't like to do either.

Feeding a predator live food, that can be fun

I personally like watching my fish more than feeding them. It could be because I'm always crabby having to get up early for school . But I think I just like to watch them more!

Its the fishy scrum I get in my tropical tank that I'll never get bored of

I never get bored of feeding my fish
I hand feed my danios & platies (well...I just hold the stuff in the water and they come running to my fingers). I love watching my fish eat

I enjoy it because everyone is so happy at feeding time.
Plus, there is nothing like the happy clicking sounds of clown loaches in a feeding frenzy.

 

[franky]

why keep an animal if you dont enjoy looking after it, thats why i reckon any way

 

[Annastasia]

I love to feed my fish too. They all look so happy to see me when I come in with thet food. They quickly forget me though! The food is MUCH more important to them!

It's ok, leaning towards tedious. I'm just not spending enough time looking at my fish. I've got to start giving them more attention.

it's the same thing for me as tempestuousfury. I always watch my fish when I drop in an algea wafer becasue all the fish will crowd around it and then the snail will get on top of it.
