Fish & Corals Diet

[RAV-65]

hi all,

Currently feeding the following to my fiosh and corals daily :

1-2 cubes frozen Brine Shrimp

Live BBS

1 capful DT Phytoplankton

A small pinch of GP

Will feed one, sometimes two of the following everyday :

Copepod (Frozen)

intervertebrate Smorgasbord

Kent marine Zooplex

Frozen Cyclopeeze

Will feed market prawns to my corals once every one or 2 week...

So far, i dun have any system to go about my feeding... and also i do not know if any of the items that i'm feedind is redundant or harmful to my tank... can someone please advice?

change from frozen brine to frozen Mysis or rotate between the 2.

Use the 1 cap of DT, mix with 1 cup tank water & add the pinch of GP into it.

Stir and feed.

For the other foods

bbs -ok

copepods-ok

Smorgasbord? by coralife? don't have to use it since you already cover in the other foods. + you don't know what's in it.

zooplex & cyclopeeze is the same, but you get more amount in frozen cyclopeeze and its cheaper. So you don't have to keep using the zooplex.

bawater... thanxs!

Was not very sure of the composition of some of the items.... but am glad to know dat the zooplex is the same as the cyclopeeze... so will use cyclopeeze from now....

Anyway, thanxs again!

You can also use Liquid Life USA's MarinePlankton very soon.

Smorgasboard -A balanced diet of yeast, essential growth factors, aminos, lipids, coenzymes,vitamins and corallite builders.

In short, its yeast & vitamins. comparable to you eating white bread the rest of your life for every meal.(not pandan/raisin/choc...just a plain $1 loaf- no butter,no kaya,no nutella)

On every food bottle they will list the ingredients, before you buy just do a little reading on the www with regards to the contents.

skip the marketing notes like This liquid food contains essential growth factors for the proper development and metabolism of hard and soft corals, fine filter feeders and live rock. This formulation dissolves easily and is absorbed by invertebrates without causing an increase in phosphates or nitrates in the aquarium.

(every bottle says that!)

Go straight for the contents.
