Okay, so we've dealt with cats (they get people food ... meat or fish) and birds (cleaning out the bags of bird seed is a job for kids pre-Pesakh).

Fish.

What do you feed your fish on Pesakh?

Don't laugh. Just answer.

We feed our fish... to our cat.

(Just kidding. I don't have a fish. Or a cat.)

According to this website:
http://www.crcweb.org/pet%20food%20guide.pdf
tubular worms, frozen brine shrimp, and freeze-dried worms are okay, if there are no fillers.

Yum yum.

Yes, we used to give our fish dried worms on Pesach. Or matza meal crumbs (I guess they aren't fussy about gebrokts).

they sell frozen blood worms ... they're tasty & good for fish fertility

birds love fruit & matzoh ... maybe even nuts - but you should check the species before feeding anything foreign

If the bloodworms idea makes you uneasy, perhaos you can sell your fish along with its food to a non-Jew for the duration of the holiday?

frogs eat live crickets ... live crickets can live in a small container with a potatoe to feed off of - until they become dinner

Frogs will also eat bloodworms.
