ok so ive got my new system cycled and im looking to stock golden and blue orfe (these are the only fish i can realistically source in my area) before i buy fish tho i want to make sure i have a batch of food to feed them with. there are plenty of feeds on ebay and local shops but im not sure what i need to be looking for. i intend to eat the fish, andy |

Hi Andy, Where are you based? Im in hampshire and having trouble getting any trout. Also looking at alternative eating fish, was going to try perch but im worried about My pond liner being punctured by their spines! |

i can get them in yorkshire greenanchor but the prices are very high and they dont deliver and i dont drive so wouldnt be able to get them home. so plumping for orfe which i can get delivered for just over a quid each. |

yeah theyre a carp species. wild carp can be a bit bland and muddy but thats not so much a problem with farmed carp ive heard. ive eaten orfe once and it was nice. theyre concidered a delecacy in some parts of asia |
