today i fed my 60cm tegu some few peaces of salt water fish , White croaker to be presise.
1 hour ago i commented a friend of mine what i fed my tegu, he told me that feeding tegus with fish is really not recomendable , and that feading salt water fish could be really harmfull and nossive for the tegus health.....
is that true?
im verry worried that the crocker could harm my tegu


PLZ ANSWER!

I breed fish and often have an ample amount of "culls" that can be used as food for my Tegu...

I talked to Bobby last year and he suggested that I should not exceed 40% fish diet... and balance the remaining 60% with non seafood items...

My girl now eats fish for about 70% of her meals about one week a month...

Jack Dempsey Cichlids to be percise...

I kinda agree with Bobby, I use seafood 2 days out of the week, 2days at most unless I use tuna cause I always have extra but with extra I mix with Turkey
, but if it's working for you and your gu is nice and healthy.. Then great
