If a 50 lb. bag of Aquamax 400 costs $47 and is 45% protein and a 50 lb. bag of Game Fish Chow costs $27 and is 32% protein, which is the better value for supplemental feeding of bluegills?
The cost per pound for Aquamax is $0.94 and GFC is $0.54/lb.. With those assumptions, the cost to get a pound of protein to the fish is $2.10 for Aquamax and $1.69 for GFC. But you only have to use 2.23 lbs. of Aquamax while using 3.125 lbs. of GFC.
Because I only intend to use feed as a supplemental food source, I assume the amount of feed I provide each day won't be so great that fish get full and stop eating. Should I go with the GFC because it's cheaper? I never was good at math and my head hurts.
