Frozen brine shrimps

[andez07]

Was wondering if it is ok or gd to use frozen brine shrimp as an added variety besides seaweed, pellets and flakes??

[Achilles Tang]

Of course...!

It's an important part of the the typical marine aquarium fish's diet! Fish's do appreciate fresh 'meat'!

[andez07]

Thanx AT

But, whr can I get them. Ask arnd in LFS, they say its very ex and dun really carry it, not all marine hobbyist will buy.

[Achilles Tang]

Marine LFS should carry them. Don't go to those LH converted to marine LFS.

[soggy]

it's $1.50 tops/slab. don't know how many cubes but it'll last you a good 2 weeks at least.

[hoppinghippos]

[andez07]

Itz one of the neighbourhood LFS that I came across. They were feeding their 3ft marine tank inhibitants with it.....so I abit kepo, go & ask if they sell & how much per slab?? ..... then they started telling ###### & bull story abt frozen bs & their tank!!!

What a turn off!!! Aft abt 15mins or so then they tell me they dun sell it coz itz too ex....abt $5/slab!!! Whoa!! I can buy 5slab of frozen bloodworms for my louhan for tha price.....hahahahahahahaha......

Then I went to Tampines LFS, and the guy sold me $1.50/slab!!!! Hehehehehe, I then got greedy & bought 4slabs....hehehehehehehe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That should last me abt 2-3mths alternate feeding schedule.

its true there are some brand of brineshimp that is quite expensive

remember to thaw the frozen food and rinse it a little with water before feeding. you wouldn't want those extra preservative nutrients to enter the tank.

cheers

Personally I feel that it is good to feel pellet too. Especially those that contains garlic.

However, the pellet are a bit expensive. So I am crushing my own garlic and adding them to the brine shrimp now.

Btw, P** M*** is selling 12 slabs of brine shrimp for $16.

If its P** M***, I suggest u try mysis shrimps too. Adds variety to your fishes' diet.
