Your Questions About How To Make A Fish Costume

Maria asks…

how to confuse trick or treaters- funnnny?

IF YOU TRY THESE LEME NO ;)

~~1~~ Give away something other than candy (Toothpicks, golf balls, bags of sand, etc.).

~~2~~ Wait behind the door until some people come. When they get near the door, jump out, wearing a costume, and holding a bag, and yell, "Trick or Treat!" Look at them, scratch your head, and act confused.

~~3~~ Fill a briefcase with marbles and crackers. Write on it, "Top Secret" in big letters. When trick-or-treaters come, look around suspiciously, say, "It's about time you got here," give them the briefcase, and quickly shut the door.

~~4~~ Get about 30 people to wait in your living room. When trick-or-treaters come to the door, say, "Come in." When they do, have everyone yell, "Surprise!!!" Act like it's a surprise party.

~~5~~ Get everyone who comes to the door to come in and see if they can figure out what's wrong with your dishwasher. Insist that it makes an unnatural "whirring" sound.

~~6~~ After you give them candy, hand the trick-or-treaters a bill.

~~7~~ Open the door dressed as a giant fish. Immediately collapse, and don't move or say anything until the trick-or-treaters go away.

~~8~~ When you answer the door, hold up one candybar, throw it out into the street, and yell, "Crawl for it!"

~~9~~ When you answer the door, look at the trick-or-treaters, act shocked and scared, and start screaming your head off. Slam the door and runaround the house, screaming until they go away.

~~10~~ Insist that the trick-or-treaters each do ten push-ups before you give them any candy.

~~11~~ Hand out menus to the trick-or-treaters and let them order their candy. Keep asking if anyone wants to see the wine list.

~~12~~ Get a catapult. Sit on your porch and catapult pumpkins at anyone who comes within 50 yards of your house.

~~13~~ When people come to the door, jump out a nearby window, crashing through the glass, and run as far away from your house as you can.

~~14~~ Answer the door dressed as a pilgrim. Stare at the trick-or-treaters for a moment, pretend to be confused, and start flipping through a calendar.

~~15~~ Instead of candy, give away colored eggs. If anyone protests, explain that the eggs are the only thing you had left over from Easter.

~~16~~ Answer the door dressed as a dentist. Angrily give the trick-or-treaters a two-hour lecture on tooth decay.

~~17~~ Answer the door with a mouthful of M & M's and several half-eaten candy bars in your hands. Act surprised, and close the door. Open it again in a few seconds, and insist that you don't have any candy.

~~18~~ Hand out cigarettes and bottles of asprin.

~~19~~ Put a crown on a pumpkin and put the pumpkin on a throne on your porch. Insist that all of the trick-or-treaters bow before The Great Pumpkin.

~~20~~ Dress up like a bunny rabbit. Yell and curse from the moment you open the door, and angrily throw the candy at the trick-or-treaters. Slam the door when you're finished.

Carol asks…

How not to be single?

So I've been single for a year now, and dated a few people. I would not say that I'm too picky since the reasons for not dating these people after a first or second date include a guys saying "I love you" on a first date, and one telling me he was the superhero Superman and wore the costume sometimes..yeah...ok..

I'm a model and take computer science classes. I'm not an idiot, and I am not ugly. I love the outdoors, camping, hiking, fishing, movies, photography. Why can't I find a person to share these things with?

It seems like everyone has a bf or gf and is oh so happy these days, I just want someone to have fun with and develope something with.

where to meet decent people?

How do I make a few dates into something more?

andre1 answers:

Dang i feel ya. It seems like everyone else is having fun while were just letting it all pass by. Hmm maybe since you like going outdoors and what not try to find a man thats the outdoors type ( even though that is uncommon). Try going to tours about nature and what not

Nancy asks…

please help...need to see if this sounds ok?

Food and colour imagery enhances the readers understanding of the text and in the Jockey; Bitsy Barlow has many incidents where it illustrates his inner conflict. The use of food and colour imagery allows the reader to have a better understanding of what the author is trying to convey through their piece of writing. Bitsy Barlow has a inner conflict which he is having trouble facing, because his conflict is not something that you can change overnight!
Bitsy Barlow was wearing “a suit of green Chinese silk that evening, tailored precisely and the size of a costume outfit for a child. The shirt was yellow, the tie striped with pastel colours.” Jockeys are always small and they always wear fun coloured and bright t-shirts while riding their horses in races, but to go out it that outfit is a bit childish. It seems like he doesn’t care about his integrity or if people think he is childish because of what he is wearing!
“His face was drawn, ageless, and gray. They were shadowed hollows at his temples and his mouth was set in a wiry smile.” From what they describe Bitsy seems to be overworked and very tired. Bitsy is not aging but he is very overworked and tired. “He drew a gold cigarette case from his pocket and snapped it open. Inside were a few cigarettes and a tiny gold penknife.” “On his wrist was a gold link bracelet that clinched against the table edge.” Gold is a symbol of power, wealth and importance. Bitsy is trying to show the other three mean that he is as high in class as them and that he has power and wealth too. Even though he has the gold cigarette case, he is not any better than the other three men, actually him trying to be better than them makes his insecure.
From the sound of the food at the restaurant it seems to be an upscale one; “before the rich man was a fish casserole……, Sylvester had ordered eggs Benedict and Simmons had a beefsteak.” For an average person that would not be a typical meal and from the sound of the food it seems to be a higher class restaurant.
“His hand reached out toward the plate nearest to him and deliberately he put a few of the French-fried potatoes in his mouth…He chewed slowly, his upper lip raised, then he turned and spat out the pulpy mouthful on the smooth red carpet which covered the floor.” This just shows how much disrespect he has towards the three men; the trainer, the bookie and the rich man.
In the end, Bitsy has no choice but to believe that he is can never be like the three men, he can’t change himself or his ways. Food and colour imagery enhances the readers understanding of the text and allows them to understand the text in their own way!

andre1 answers:

The only part I would question concerns the "sound of the food at the restaurant". I'd think that food would "smell", not make noise. That's the only part that caught my eye as needing changing. Otherwise it's good!

So I am in 4-H and 2 years ago they introduced a new competition tipe thing it's called musical freestyle.
What you do is pick a song and than get an outfit to mach and than make a routine with any thing you like in it.
it is judged on:
creativity
if you outfit maches the song
if you routine maches the song like if the music speeds up you speed up.
the rules are you have to be safe that's all.
last year I did it to the pirate that don't do anything

ok so if you did not get all that my three mane qus are
how can i get my horse blue
how can i ride with one fin
and is this a good ideah

andre1 answers:

To make your horse blue, I'd invest a few dollars in blue vetwrap and just wrap him up. Or make him look like a seahorse with alternating tan and yellow and brown vetwrap.

I would forget about a skirt and just make each one of your legs a lot wider by making some kind of mesh flexible frame and wrapping with something that resembles scales and put a tail at the bottom over your boot. This way you'll look like you've got a mermaid's tail from whichever side someone looks at you.

Yes, excellent idea. It's fun and the horse isn't subjected to an event that is hard on him.

Nancy asks…

I need cosplay help! Quick!?

I'm on a deadline but I just got the idea to post here. I am going to be attending metrocon this year in Tampa Florida and I am going to be reusing a costume I wore last year. The costume is Kazekage Gaara. I had the outfit custom made from Japan and my mom helped me assemble a sand gord. I know the common way to make it is using paper mache but I wanted something more life like. I used a burlap sack filled with two trashbags full of waded up newspaper and then tied in the middle with red fabric to give it the form. Now this looked great but I have a major issue. I have no idea how to wear this thing. I thought of fishing wire but was told it would be uncomforatable. I'll be wearing it for long periods of time. ? I need to have this ready to go by June 17. Thanks in advance!

andre1 answers:

Maybe I will see you there.

Here is a pic of a person wearing one. Http://farm1.static.flickr.com/75/169680120_462c5bcd8d.jpg?v=0 He has it tied with a red fabric.

But you using burlap you can affix key rings, one on the lower end and one the upper. Then use a a book bag strap to connect to the rings. If you want to get fancy and have a sewing machine get some fabric (I'd use a light brown) and cut it the length of the book bag strap. And 2.5X's as wide as the strap. Fold the fabric in half long ways and sew up the ends on the long side creating a long tube. Turn the tube inside out and slide over the strap. This gives a more complete look.

Susan asks…

Do I look ugly, hideous, weird, funny, etc?

Sorry about this long question, here it goes.

I want to know if I look incredibly weird or ugly. Is there something wrong with my appearance?

What I go through is probably not normal. People stare at me outside in public, wherever I go, very strangely. Drivers in their cars always stare at me for a very long time, as if they saw someone they knew. It's not like I walk weird or anything. People seemed to be offended when they see me. Then they usually do gestures or actions that I find rather rude. Now here is even a more crazy part. People tend to rub their eyes whenever they see me or make eye contact. What, is my hideousness so powerful it burns their eyes? They can't stand to be near me. Hell, one time a stranger came up and told me I was ugly as a costume. I know this all sounds pretty insane. It just all adds up to nonsense and pain and it doesn't makes sense to me.

At school, I am hated by the majority and I am basically the laughing-stock, the social outcast, the loner. I am constantly bullied all the time and get gossip, mocks, and insults at my back. I go through this every single day. Everyone is rude to me, as if I did something to them, but I did not. They all hate being close to me and sitting near me, and try their best to keep away from me. I don't have any friends. Never had a close friend before.

The problem is, I don't do anything, never have. I am usually a very quiet, gentle guy. I don't act weird at all. There is just something repelling and different about me that I can't be treated as a normal person, ever. I just don't understand why this is happening to me. I am tired of being judged every time.

All my life, I've been considered annoying, creepy, ugly, weird, funny, dumb, odd, perverted, you name it, anything. Annoying? How could someone be annoying if they do nothing, better yet, how can one look annoying?! Half of these words aren't even possible for a human to look like. Seeing people getting offended by me must mean they think I look like a jerk.

I don't have paranoia or any disorder, what I am going through is real. I've already bypassed this notion, been through it with my therapist. I just have depression, nothing else.

I seriously need answers. You might be just like the rest of the people I've met. Clearly your eyes will burn, become disgusted, or something like that.

Here are pictures of me. You should zoom in the pics for an accurate view. First link leads to the individual close ups. Be warned, be prepared, because I may be the most hideous guy you'll ever see (I'm serious).

http://s926.photobucket.com/albums/ad102/Anonymous108/The%20Ugly%20Me/?action=view&current=yahoofaceextra3.jpg

This link leads to my album:

http://s926.photobucket.com/albums/ad102/Anonymous108/The%20Ugly%20Me/

Please be honest. I simply want what you think, the exact impression you get right away. I cannot express this anymore. Please tell your true opinion, I won't care if it is bad or insulting, as long as it is truly what you feel. In fact, an insult won't harm me, it would probably relieve me more than ever now that I've found an answer. You may say that I am drop dead ugly, just ugly, goofy looking, average, etc. Try to be descriptive and detailed as well. If I am ugly, please describe why. You can give me tips or ratings or whatever, your choice. I am definitely not fishing for compliments.

Sorry about the long question, and sorry about being a whiny, uptight brat. Thank you for taking your time reading my complaints and for the help.

Chris asks…

helpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp make it look like a 12th wrote it pleeezzz?

The environment the lovers in the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet can influence audiences to think different ways. The people can be greatly affected in their interpretation of hidden symbolic meaning. This great story and play was edited in two different ways, one Zeferelli directed which was filmed in 1968, and the version produced in 1996. The different scenes throughout the length of the party were the most influential to me in that I saw how different these movies were directed, and the different meaning I experienced from watching these movies. Focusing on the environment of the scenes and the costuming helped me in my interpretation, because I found hidden symbolism from these two qualities.

In the 1996 film version of Romeo and Juliet, the interior and exterior designing of the palace helped create certain symbolism. An exhilarating explosion of fireworks in the sky helped recapture an intense party scene. Beautiful colors were reflected throughout the scene. These different rays of colors were reflected in the faces of the actors and actresses. Music was also used to intensify this scene. The song "Young Hearts Run Free" was appropriate, because it produced an irony of how Romeo and Juliet would meet that night. The exterior of the Capulet's palace was intensified by red banners that hung down from the windows. White lights which strung along the palm trees showed an elegance. The interior designing of the house focused on an enormous staircase, and in the background the walls were painted red. The frames hung on the wall were outlined with gold trim, and there were two unusual gold statues by the staircase, that were half man and half fish.

The director's choice of lighting and music helped to create an actual party scene with the liveliness it brought. The explosion of fireworks in the sky could have been interpreted as an explosion of lust that would occur later on between Romeo and Juliet. Also I found that the use of fireworks in the sky emphasized the stars, and Romeo and Juliet were star crossed lovers of their time. The coloring of reds and gold helped make the Capulet house outstanding and showed the audience royalty and richness. The statues that were on each side of the staircase representing half man and half fish were showing the controversy of how a man is torn from being masculine, to being put in the direction of femininity or romanticism. I think the top part of the man is shown as strength, and the bottom fin shows his need to express his feminine side. I think Romeo was represented by this statue for his romantic qualities and how he chose to be a lover, over his instinctive masculinity of wanting to fight.

Water was the main focus of scenery the first time Romeo and Juliet saw each other, creating an unusual array of lust. The first time they saw each other, their gaze went across a beautiful aquarium of fish. Different colors and types of fish swam by as they stared deeply into each others' eyes. This scene looked as if it were filmed underwater, and gave the effect of being in a world under the sea. Again, the choice of music in the background, "Kissing You," helped create a romantic atmosphere. The actual tune and pace of the song were slow enough and went well with the fish floating slowly across the aquarium.

Many issues were obtained from this scene by the use of water, emphasizing an intense array of sexuality. The use of water and fish could have represented Juliet's virginity to the audience, being that fish can be interpreted as a woman's vagina. As Romeo set his gaze upon her, he might have sensed her purity, and seen her for nothing more than for her vagina, which would be represented by the fish. Another interpretation I found was that Romeo was looking through the aquarium at millions of beautiful fish, yet focusing on Juliet resembles Romeo's immaturity of being in love with Rosaline a few hours before, and shortly after being in love with Juliet. This also could have represented many other 'fish in the sea,' implying that Romeo's interests were surely based on lust. The song "Kissing You," showed the audience the lustful intentions these young teenagers had when they first saw one another. The music helped create a sexual innuendo by the slow, heavy breathing in the song.

The elevator scene was a unique spot in which Romeo and Juliet first embraced which showed a wanting for privacy. Surrounding them in the background was a pure whiteness that brightened up the entire scene. There were golden bars in the elevator that went around them, almost resembling golden gates of heaven.

The director's choice in having this scene take place within an elevator showed a lust for wanting to be close, and being away from everyone else. I think the representation of this scene shows the lovers engaging in a rather rebellious act at that time. The reas

Goldfish in a bowl ? PLAESE HELP ME!!!!?

I'm not talking about the one if your pregnant, but I really want to be a goldfish in a bowl for halloween! I was thinking I about painting my face orange and have a fish tail on the back of my head and a little bowl thing around my head! Then of course a black outfit so it just looks like a goldfish in a bowl.....do you know if I can buy something like this or how I can make it? :O I would be ETERNALLY GRATEFUL!!!! THANKS!!!!

andre1 answers:

My daughter had the exact same idea (she's a red head -- so it should look great). Our main problem was what to do about the bowl. We looked at various "Sam's Club" sized pretzel/snack bins, but nothing is really big enough. We are going to make it into a tank instead -- using some very light weight plexiglass-plastic from Home Depot (like what you'd get in an inexpensive poster frame), and join the seams with colorful duct tape. Glue down a few pebbles and maybe a fake plant. The only thing I'm a bit worried about is making sure it doesn't tip off of her shoulders, so we might attach (with velcro) a couple of felt straps. We'll have to play around with them to make sure it's secure. Hope this helps -- and

Linda asks…

my pikachu tail falls over on itself, help me!?

Okay, so in a few days it will be Halloween, and i'm being pikachu. I'm making me costume, and i'm having A LOT of trouble with the tail. First of all, i made a cardboard tail, but then it got creases and it folded over on itself. Then i thought maybe i could use that bendable wire stuff in the shape of the tail and sew the yellow cloth on top. So i sewed the cloth, but now i'm thinking that maybe the wire wont be strong enough to support the whole thing. Maybe attaching the tail to me some how with fishing string would help, but i don't know. Please, could you give me some suggestions!?

andre1 answers:

Do use the bendable wire and keep a zig-zag shape characteristic of Pikachu. Also, you do have the right idea for the fishing line as it is stronger and won't break as easily as regular string. It will keep the tail upright and out of your way when you sit. Just make sure that it can swivel. Here's an example for mounting it to a belt: http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.92869818.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.feralworks.net/pikachu-inspired-tail/&usg=__7iLD3QxPnisi35a1DRd4NEKAsLo=&h=430&w=430&sz=30&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=kOHlduktaj73hM:&tbnh=138&tbnw=137&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dpikachu%2Bcostume%2Btail%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1680%26bih%3D810%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=1288&vpy=313&dur=4522&hovh=225&hovw=225&tx=117&ty=129&ei=J0LHTPOPBIyasAPJkez7DA&oei=J0LHTPOPBIyasAPJkez7DA&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=46&ved=1t:429,r:20,s:0 Keep the top close to your body like the image has it.

Why is it not a sport to hunt telemarketers?

I mean...they piss just about everyone off (except maybe their mothers). We could make a sport out of them!! It's called "I'll call you at dinner time" and here's how it works...

It's really easy. First, you dress one of them up in a Barney suit that has been painted with steak juices. Give them a days bread, a little canteen full of dirty water, and some fishing wire. The telemarketer then runs off into the woods for about, oh say, 2 minutes. Did I forget to mention the roller skates? The telemarketer MUST wear rollerskates in the Barney costume... Once the 2 minute mark occurs, you let out 15 hungry lions who chase down the telemarketer and eat him or her. See??!! Fun!!

I swear, dude...you think it sounds stupid...just try it. It's a theraputic sport and will help you sleep better at night... You should try my variation of golf using lawyers as the tee...

Unfortunately - these people frequently cannot find other work - perhaps due to one of life's sudden upheavals......

Hope this perspective helps you. It did me! Thanks for asking this question.

How To Make A Fish Costume Goldfish

Planning To Install A 150 Fish Gallon Tank- Here Is A Bit Of Advice

If you have decided that you want to turn your small hobby into an aquarium world then building a 150 gallon is a great idea. You must first think about it carefully before undertaking a project of this size as this is perhaps one of the largest tanks that you can feasibly put in your home, and installing a 150 fish gallon tank in your house takes a lot of planning and a lot of patience.

What Species Of Fish Will Be Living In A Tank Of This Size?

You must consider that once you have your 150 fish gallon tank in your home, what type of animal life do you want swimming around in there. Do you want a saltwater reef or some freshwater fish greeting you during the day? Another possibility is having both land and water represented in the large tank, giving the illusion of the beach or a lakefront property. If you decide to have a saltwater environment for your 150 fish gallon tank, there are a few species that make wonderful additions and are easy to look after.

The following species are just a few that would make a lovely addition to any 150 fish gallon tank.

• The Purple Tang : known scientifically as Zebrasoma xanthurus
• Yellow Stripe Maroon Clownfish
• Sea Anemone: Entacmaea quadricolor

These fish would look wonderful in any 150 fish gallon tank. The Purple Tang is very bold and as it is a herbivore it is well equipped to handle just about any plant matter that the reef could throw at it. This fish thrives in tanks of 100 gallons or more, so it should feel right at home in your 150 fish gallon tank. Make sure though that all your fish ‘get on’ with the others, please watch putting it in the tank with other tangs – be they yellow, red, or purple – as these little guys can get quite territorial at times.

The stunning Clownfish has yellow stripes on its forehead, middle section and tail. They are very easy to take care of and would look and feel right at home in your 150 fish gallon tank.

If you decide to have a saltwater 150 fish gallon tank then the sea anemone gets on really well with the clownfish and would survive quite easily in an aquarium of this size. For further advice it is always best to visit a specialist .

Jenny asks…

Props for the MS play?

Hi, I'm the official prop manager of my MS (middle school) play.That means it's pretty much up to me to provide all of the props.

Does anybody have about where I could find/how I could make a large strip of fishing net covered in jingle bells. It's to drape around a person like a toga so they jingle when they walk, and it has to be a fishing net for the sake of their costume.
Also, I need to make a few documents look old, so how do I make them brown and crumbled like they're ancient?
Finally, where can I buy fake food? I see it all over the place, but I've never actually seen it sold in stores.

Ty in advance for your help.

andre1 answers:

Welcome to the wonderful world of stage props !! One thing I would do is call up the local junior college and/ or community theater and see if THEIR Props Department can provide you with assistance. Also pop over to the library and look for a textbook called "Stage-craft" which was one of MY many resources over the years.

The fishing net can be found at a boat or RV store, and the bells at any crafts store.

Aging documents is best done with a series of dips in TEA or COFFEE and drying on a flat towel or from a clothes line. I preferred to find paper with a high linen count, and THEN put them in a pillow case with some coins and run them thru the drier.

Fake food is often made of carved foam or paper mache'... You MIGHT be able to find fake food at a restaurant supply store... I've found many bread loaves and deli-trays. ASK nicely at a place where you SEE it where they got it and if you could borrow their catalog

Ty in advance for your help.

andre1 answers:

To make documents look old, brew a cup of tea with the tea bag in it. Take the tea bag and rub it on the document until it is stained. You want to do it this way and not dip the document in tea because rubbing it will help get variation in the coloring. Dipping it will make it a uniform color, which is wrong for aging. Leave it out in the sun to dry, preferably on a dark surface so it dries quickly. It will warp and wrinkle as it dries. If the documents are supposed to be really old then consider drying them with a hair dryer... That'll make it wrinkle more, especially on the edges. Also, as it's drying (but not dry yet) sprinkle a few drops of tea on the paper to make age spots. DO NOT BURN OR TEAR THE EDGES - that looks cheesy.

For fake bread use real and shellac it. There are sources online for fake meet. Joke shops are a good place to start. If you're looking for something like a cut of steak or even a chicken leg you can buy really bad fakes and then take a mixture of high gloss polyeurthane (water based) and either a greyish brown paint (for steak) or a yellow-brown (for chicken) and paint a few layers onto the fake. There should be very little pigment in the glaze: you want the base to show through. The glaze just gives richness to the color and makes it look moist, like a juicy piece of meat.

Fishing net covered in bells. Sorry, your best bet is to get a piece of fishing net (online, marine supply... It's pretty cheap) and some really cheap silver bells (also online, try holiday supply stores, party stores and Oriental Trading Company). Then, sew them on, one by one. Before you sew them on, pick a color - you don't want the fishing net to be white because it will look really bright on stage. You could make a mixture of 10 parts water to 1 part brown paint and 1 part yellow paint. Dip the net in that and it'll look a little aged.

Sharon asks…

how do you make fish net stockings out of things at home?

ium not a crafty person and just happen to be broke on cash and i am going to a friday and i have to win the costume contest

You could draw on some white tights, or learn to crochet real fast. It sounds like you are too young to wear fishnets anyway, and if you "have " to win, there can't be a shortcut. Be content to be an also-ran.

How do I make an Evil Fairy Costume?

Dark makeup, thats easy to do
black heels maybe? And then a dark cardigan on top. Do you hair maybe in that tinker-bell bun but do dark makeup and maybe but some tears in the fishnets :)

Good luck!

Help!! I have to make a halloween costume for my child. She is dressing up as a jelly.?

I know you may be thinking what???

But its quite logical actually. She is dressing up as a jelly and her friend is dressing up as a fish. You know jelly fish.

However I'm not very good at , any help on how I could make her costume??

Thank you!!!

andre1 answers:

Thats really cute!!! You can do the big cardbord roll, but I would get wrapping paper and cover the jar in it and then use markers to make it look like a jelly jar. You can find this all at Hobby Lobby this time of year, and for straps use old nylon tie downs and staple them on the cardboard. Have fun!

And tell you daughter and her friend that their idea is one of the most creative I have heard in a while!

P.S Add and a grey t-shirt and she should be all ready!

Mary asks…

What costume can I make that is silver or lights up?

I want to look interesting for hallowe'en and so am trying to come up with a costume idea thats either silver or lights up.

How To Make A Fish Costume

by andre1 on January 14, 2011

... - Zuiderzeemuseum - traditional costumes from Marken, Volendam

Home Made ; How to Make a Nutritious Fish Food for , Goldfish, and Carnivorous Fish

You can make your own supplement for general fish feeding that is high in DL-methionine (an important amino acid in fish nutrition); Start with whole salmon which is an excellent source of carotene for color (frozen or even canned works), frozen peas, hard boiled egg, frozen or FD brine shrimp, duck weed or spiulina powder, and fish oil (cod liver oil works fine). Blend this mixture then add corn starch to the paste to dehydrate. Spread this paste on small strips of foil (or even wax paper if your dehydrator does not get to hot). Make sure you leave room for air circulation.

For a frozen food, substitute the corn starch with unflavored gelatin powder.

For goldfish and koi, add wheat germ powder. Use this formula for African Cichlids, except delete the wheat germ.
For more carnivorous fish increase the whole fish and decrease the spirulina powder or duckweed. Calamari (squid) can be added too for carnivorous fish, but make sure that all the ink is removed from whole squid.
Use this formula for Discus.

For spirulina powder, Spirulina One Flake can be substituted, but since this already a complete diet for many fish, I double the amount of this and decrease other ingredients by comparable amounts.

Here are basic percentages, please note that you can change these percentages to suit your fish food requirements:

BASIC/GOLDFISH/CARNIVOURE

Whole Salmon: 25% 20% 30%

Peas: 25% 25% 15%

Egg: 20% 15% 25%

Brine shrimp: 15% 15% 15%

Spirulina Powder:10% 15% 5%

Wheat Germ: 0% 5% 0%

Squid: 0% 0% 5%

Fish Oil: 2% 2% 2%

Corn Starch or Gelatin: 3% 3% 3%

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. QUESTION:
    How can I make a ?
    I want to be "The Catch of The Day" for halloween. I have my lip pierced and I was going to but a fishing hook in it (with the barbs cut off of course). My boyfriend is going to be the fisherman, but I have no idea how to make myself look like a fish. I don't want to be an ugly fish either? Any cool, creative, interesting, fun, easy ideas?

    • ANSWER:
      You could find a mermaid suit or get some gauze that's sparkly and blue and decorate or sew sequins and then dye your hair a semi-permanent or fake blue and put soarkly clips in your hair and you can find fins on websites that sell kids' costumes. You just have to use your imagination. I like the idea of the fishhook. I wish I could get my lip pierced.

  2. QUESTION:
    How would you make a fish costume for a baby?
    I plan to dress my 4 yr old as a fisherman and my baby as the fish. I am on a limited budget and cannot sew to save my life.

    • ANSWER:
      If you can't sew, and you have a small budget...I would take a bright colored onesie, and cut out 'scales' from felt scraps (10Cents a square) pin the on the onesie, and add felt fins, felt tail. Much like the rainbow fish, if you know the book. Additionally, I'd put some lipstick on him, lipliner the works for fish lips, and any cap can also have the felt scales pinned on. I think your idea is cute and original!

  3. QUESTION:
    What would be the best way to make a fish finger costume?
    I am going to a marine themed Christmas party and have decided to dress up as a fish finger.
    I have some person sized boxes, but I am unsure how to get the fish finger texture on the box!! Please bear in mind I am a student on a low budget!!

    Thank you!!!

    • ANSWER:
      This is my new most favourite Q ever.

      It basically needs to be orange and textured - The orange bit is easy you just paint it. There is a spray can that adds a stone like texture to surfaces but that would be pricey. I'd be inclined to cover the boxes with pva glue, chuck on a load of cheap cat litter and when dry paint orange :)
