Best answer:

Answer by dlaj887
If your killi is anything like mine, he will eat just about anything! i was feeding superworms to my tigerbarbs and the killi got a hold of one that was 3X his size and wouldnt let anyone else get near it! Thy can eat ghost shrimp but probably wont actually hunt them because they are top dwellers and the ghost shrimp pretty much stay on the bottom. They may go after small fish such as feeder guppy fry, but depending on the size of your killi, fish might be a bit too much of a challenge.
You can try small crickets, flightless fruitflies, mealworms, nightcrawlers and daphnia. All are good nutritious live foods for fish.

   Golden Killifish are nit picky eaters. They eat mosquitos in the wild, but will eat a broad spectrum of dry and live floating food in captivity.
