Hi folks, I've got a 16oz unused bottle of phytofeast free to anyone that can come pick it up. It is dated sell-by 6/8/2024, but it is sealed. I can't hope to use it before it goes bad, looking to give it to a good home. Send me a note if you are in the Tampa area. Wasn't sure where this...

Hi all. I've got a 2.5 gallon aquarium that seems to be doing fairly well, but I'm a bit unsure of how much I should be feeding my livestock. Currently, I've been feeding every other day = 3-4 times per week. I see many people posting that they feed their aquariums 3-4 times per day! How do I...

I was just wondering if anyone has cultured their phyto under 24/7 light. I’ve seen the average light cycles people use is 12-12 or 16 on - 8 off. It’s not essential to turn off lights for some terrestrial plants although it can be beneficial for the substrate biomes I’ve read. But that’s...

Hey everyone I’ve been experimenting the past few months with dosing blends of liquid food into my 20 gallon NPS tank and 40 gallon garden eel/community tank. I’ve been test running it and checking food blends for any weird smells every few days but all seems to be good. I’m using a mini fridge...

Would a spike in amphipod population cause my firefish to no longer need feeding sessions? Its the only fish in my 15G tank. Very picky eater and only likes coming out with mysis shrimp. Over the last couple of weeks. its been coming out less and less. The times I have caught it, because its so...

So picked up a lawnmower Blenny as my first first in my newly cycled tank. I have attempted to feed him both frozen brine shrimp and Nori but I can’t seem to catch him eating either. I have my nori clipped maybe a little to high but I didn’t think it was an issue. Is there any other food people...

As the first fish in my tank I was steered towards getting a lawnmower blenny. I’ve seen online that some people feed them frozen brine shrimp although i understand that they are herbivores. I kept this in mind when buying. Picked him up and the guy at the store told me that they feed him...

I know that there diet NEEDS hard stuff like clams and all that for their beaks. But the problem with mine is that he doesn’t go for them. He’s not...

Hey everyone, was wondering where I could find a high quality and pure calanus product? Been using the BRS calanus but it seems like they’re mixing with other ingredients, found a whole krill in there once lol

Ok, today I decided the make my own food for my fish. Fresh shrimp, scallops and squid with some nori, beta glucan and vitamins mixed with a bit of water. The only problem is after I ran it in the nutribullet for about 30 seconds it basically became a paste. They ate it, but it’s did not...

Fish Nutrition – Short Bites Proper nutrition of captive fish is a very complicated subject. Virtually everything known about this topic is derived from fisheries science and therefore is related to growing fish for human food – where the fastest growth rate is most important. Long-term captive...

I tried a little experiment and want to get everyone's thoughts. I used to mix a few frozen foods together on Monday in a tiny 1/8 cup Tupperware then feed with a baster watching to see all was consumed (LRS Reef Frenzy, Hikari bio-pure bloodworms, Hikara bio pure mysis, Hikari Angelfish mix.)...

Hi all I have just purchased a very greedy Firefish who I have been feeding twice a day! I do 8 small pellets in the morning and 8 again in the eve, I also drop in 2/3 flakes as the hermit crabs and nas snail go crazy for them so like to make sure they have enough to! How often and how much...

Thank you to everyone who commented on the last post where I was asking about feeding regiment. I’m now not just feeding the frozen shrimp LSR but now using Nori on a clip. I heard a lot of people saying they feed nori up to 5 times a day.. but my friend who’s very experienced says not to feed...

Hi all, I have a question. I have a trio of Bartlett's anthias and one Blotched anthias. Everyone else eats mysis shrimp but he seems to catch it and spit out. I tried other foods like R.O.E and cyclops doesn’t care for them. He super active and alert. Any other food ideas that I can try to feed...

Hey reefers, I would like to get a general consensus of how much I should feed my fish and how often. I have recently had a nitrite outbreak and a diatom bloom and I would guess it’s over feeding because the rest of my parameters are quite nice. I have a 180 gallon reef tank, filled with 1 Gem...

Hey guys and girls! I was wondering: I have 6 sexy shrimp in a aquamedic armatus XS pico tank with a couple of mushrooms, sand and rocks. I am looking for pellets or other kind of food to feed the sexy shrimp but have not yet been succesfull. My problems: - If i feed, some pellets or mysis...

Im going on a very sudden trip in less than 2 days for 4 days total, my fish tank has been established for 7+ months now and I feed them once everyday. Would 4 days be ok without food? I have 2 clownfish, 1 red firefish, 1 banggai cardinal, 1 flasher wrasse, and 1 tomini tang.

Recently gotten into an argument with a friend about what happens with food in a tank. The argument is that if I put a thawed cube of emerald entree in my tank does most of that food end up settling in the tank. Like most of it sits on the sand bed and gets in the rocks and aqua scape. Or does...
