If fed entirely on fish snakes can get vit b(and other?) defeciencies which can cause seizures and death. Also saltwater fish would contain salt which some ppl think is harmful to snakes(?).

Apart from that fish are good occasional food IMO and they make snakes grow faster because they digest quicker.

The biggest problem in Qld is that you cant catch mullet under 30cm stupid laws
Most other large/medium freshwater fish are to spikey so i can only really get food for the little snakes, I use CB swordtails for that usually.
