Turmeric Safety
 

Does anyone know if turmeric is safe for fire bellied toads? I am making a fruit fly culture and want to add some turmeric for the carotenoids. It also has antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial properties.

Turmeric is an ingredient in many herp supplements and FF media, including Repashy Superfly.

Unless you're experienced in FF culturing, and know what nutritional profile you're aiming for in a FF media, I'd highly recommend using a prepackaged media. They're crazy cheap per cx (~50 cents) and produce reliably, and don't run the risk of nutritional imbalances in the feeder insects as they've been tested for decades.
