feeding freezed dryed mysis?

Devaji · Jul 22, 2017

so I dont have access to frozen mysis with out shipping it over night. so I was wondering about freeze dried mysis soaked in Selcon? then supplement with BBS?

just wondering as I was looking for bulk frozen mysis. if you know where to get any let me know too.
thanks and happy SH keeping!

Check out Fosters and Smith. They usually have a decent deal going with mix and match and discounted shipping for frozen foods.

I don't like freeze dried mysis mainly because it seems to gunk up my skimmer.

I find that most of my fish wont touch the freeze dried stuff.

oh wow there shipping on 1 day air for good is $ 20 not bad at all. I have spend 1/2 of my tank $$ on shipping in corals/fish etc.
A few hundred in shipping easy so its nice to see a fair price.

odd question but on average how many Cubes are in a 16 flat. I know there not cubed up, just trying to get an idea on how long it will last if I feed 1 cube a day?

You don't have a PetCo or Pet Smart close by? Other than dog food, that is the only thing I go there for. But they generally do have frozen mysis (locally for me anyway).

the closest pet co/pet smart is 98 miles away each way. they used to carry the 16oz flats a while back if I remember right. but they dont anymore I aked a few times they were unsure if they could get them in again.

but even if they did with the gas and time might as well spend the 20 can get is shipped to my door.

yeah I saw the BRS started shipping frozen food a cpl months ago. thanks cool.

is there a brand that we like better for SH? watch a cpl vids on PE they seam to think there better...do we need the smaller pink pkg special grade? there supposed to be smaller.
