Fish vitamins done a little differently....

[Lionfish Lair]

Some people use a dehydrator for things like strawberries. Us crazy saltwater folks use regular household items a little differently....

Making vitamins for my fish.

Dead first or ?

 

[Lionfish Lair]

Whatever makes you sleep better at night, my friend.

But how do you mean exactly?

 

[rayn]

Dead frozen? Or do you just plop them on there and hit the dehydrate button?

 

[Lionfish Lair]

Can I plead the 5th?

HA! Very cool!

 

[twilliard]

Nice!!
doesnt that make the food float?

Can you dehydrate all the food? My predator tank only likes big chunks of meat. Do you think this would work for them? Or would the crunchy texture throw them off?

I stick feed. We call these Pred Pockets. They are not the vitamin, but are the pocket to put liquid vitamins into....

And no, I'm not a weird hobbyist that names all their food even.... we were a business 'member, so we're not totally weird.... not totally.

I also use it to get medications into fish orally.

I don't know a thing about dehydrating food. But would this make it possible to feed dehydrated mussels, shrimps etc. in an auto feeder?

How does this make your house smel???

My fiance would not be a fan!

You can't smell them at all. Zero. There's zero meat left in them and they are just an empty shell. They're not like krill or anything. The color they are isn't because they are cooked, but I dehydrate them, inject vitamin C and then dehydrate them some more.

I honestly have no idea. I'm not sure it would be something I'd try, as I don't know if it could cause issues with constipation and blockage or not.

Awesome! Crispy shrimp cookies packed with vitamins!
