Mosquito fish primarily feed on small aquatic organisms such as mosquito larvae, small insects, and algae. While they may nibble on plant material occasionally, celery is not a natural part of their diet and is not suitable for them. Feeding mosquito fish vegetables like celery may not provide the necessary nutrients they need to thrive. It's best to stick to their preferred diet for optimal health.
