I think it was just sort of a hit miss. We had absolutely no research on what was suitable for what animals. And I guess, quite frankly, in those days, it was easier to replace them than trying to keep them alive. That was the attitude back then. We fed things like horse heart, Codfish, horse meat, ground up and chopped up in small pieces. But there was no attention paid to what the nutritional value was of it. Fill our stomachs, and I’ll be happy. Eventually, then we brought in some people who had a little more training in keeping tropical fish.
