Adding more protein to diet

catnipcutie Nov 30, 2004 10:19 AM

Could anyone recommend a good food or supplement to add more protein to my res's diet? I have two baby RES and they are pretty fussy eaters.

for more protein you could always try guppy feeder fish, dried shrimp or blood worms... if they are 2 years or younger you can feed them protein everyday or every other day but only enough that would fit into their head... and around 3 years or older they should be fed protein only twice a week or so with greens supplied between protein feedings!
