Dont cook the ox heart, but you do need to cut out all the outer covering, fat, tendons, valves, etc. to only leave pure meat.

There are a lot of "discus tucker" recipes around, but I make up a discus food as follows (the recipe was passed on to me by someone who breeds a lot of discus):

1.5kg ox heart (the pure meat as above)

250 g fish (I use salmon)

250 g cooked frozen prawn tails (use the small ones)

2 tsp. spirulina powder (you can buy it from the supermarket)

4 cloves garlic.

I roughly mix it together and then double mince it through an ancient old mincer that I got from a second hand store and then freeze it in ice cubes trays covered with gladwrap. When feeding it out cut it finely when frozen with a sharp knife.
