Bonito Flakes For Fish

[Caleb1266]

I have a ton of bonito flakes and I was wondering if I could feed them to my fish?

I'm assuming "Bonito" is just the brand name? If so then I don't think you'll have a problem. I used to feed both my freshwater & saltwater tanks all kinds of food, regardless of the brand name. (or pictures on the label) They're all interchangeable IME.

No they are actually flakes of bonito fish

They put that on my favorite shishito peppers at a restaurant near me.

I think it would be great source of protein, but look at ingredients to see if they use preservatives.

the stuff I have looked at is just dried bonito without preservative.
