looking for masago

[dviper150]

Anyone know where I can buy masago around the Elgin area?

 

[SkullV]

Whole Foods has it. I don't know if there is a whole foods in your area though.

 

[dviper150]

Where is Whole foods?

 

[SkullV]

All over the place it's a higher end "natural" grocery chain.

Is there a difference in the color of masagos?

 

[skunkmere]

i tried the red one and it made my fuge gel up. wierd. stopped using it and switched to the orange capalin roe. it looks like rods eggs.

 

[dviper150]

I have never seen them before so I will try to look for orange eggs.

 

[skunkmere]

i suggested the asian markets beacause they will be cheaper than Whole Paycheck.

There's a really nice Asian store on Arlington Heights Road and Algonquin(sp) Road just take I90 to Arlington Heights make a left at the light and stay to your right. You'll pass two lights and the second ones Algonquin pass it and its the first enterence on your right. Its hard to see because theres a lot of trees. You'll see a Greek resturant on the corner it's behind that. Hope this helps.

Theres a couple asian markets in hoffman estates. Both on Roselle and Golf. One is pretty small on the side plaza next to Aquarium Adventures and the other acrooss the street next to Petco. Never been in them though, so I can't guarantee you'll find it. Worth a shot checking out I guess. . .

This place is the best around. It beats mitsua hands down. The fish is better and more reasonable in price. It also has a little restaurant to eat in or carry out. It's on yhe corner of Arlington Heights Rd and Rte 72 by the Elk Grove Bowling Alley.

Tensuke Market
Grocery, Japanese, Sushi Bars

Thanks a lot. I just went and bought some of the orange masago from there. I didn't know they are so small. I saw salmon eggs next to them that were a little orange but wasn't sure if I should get those or not. The masago eggs are way too small for my fish so is there anything bigger I can get?

Are they having problems feeding? Is there a particular reason you want to feed eggs? What fish are you trying to feed?

 

[dviper150]

I am trying to get my achilles to eat. I have tried nori, mysis, and pellets but he doesn't seem interested in any of those. Doesn't seem to notice the eggs either.

If you just want to get a feeding response so you can start mixing other foods in try Live Brine or Live Blackworms. They are both pretty irresistible to fish.

+1 on Live Blackworms and have you tried Rods?
