Chia Pets?

[Namor]

aka- Salvia Hispanica L.
It's supposed to to good for us, but was wondering if it would be okay for the fish?
Would be nice if it was, as you could have a constant supply without taking up room in the fridge.:yes:
I now find myself looking at all veggies and wondering if it would make a good snack. (can't wait to start a fish friendly garden this spring.)

I don't see anything about it that would make it bad for fish, but I've never tried it. From what I can dig up, its supposed to be an excellent source of Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, and vegetable Protein. The challenge may be in getting them to eat it, but otherwise, if a vegie is ok for humans it is probably ok for fish. Many of them haven't been tried or documented though, so take that at face value. I noted with interest that it has a very high amount of calcium and I'd like to try it on the snails. Thanks for mentioning it!

I can't wait to see that garden ::D: .

Does it reseed itself on the chia or does it die eventually or is it a mother plant kind of thing? I would try it if it keeps going or maybe we can find the seeds?
