Achilles Tang Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Of course...! It's an important part of the the typical marine aquarium fish's diet! Fish's do appreciate fresh 'meat'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member planetg Posted November 5, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted November 5, 2003 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member dradttg Posted November 5, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted November 5, 2003 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
