Freshwater Fish as Food for Lizards

There are many lizard species that can be fed, and enjoy, freshwater fish. They must be freshwater fish, as saltwater fish have too high of a salt content. Feed the fish to your lizard whole. In the wild, the fish is eaten whole, and should be in captivity as well. This ensures the lizard gets all the needed vitamins and minerals out of their food.

Never feed your lizard fish from polluted waters. Make sure you know the overall health of the waterway. Pollutants can cause sickness and disease.
