Do You Feed Mysis Everyday ?

[Luke.]

is it bad too ?

 

[chrisstevens]

i feed mysis everyday as well as nls pellets

 

[Nonuser]

Oh heavens no! Would you want the same thing for dinner every day?

I feed ever other or third day. Fish don't really need that much food and water quality is important. When I do feed I feed with a turkey baster over the course of the evening. Like 3 times from 5 pm to 10pm

I have a frozen blended concoction of mysis, krill, table shrimp, squid, clam, oyster, perch, reef roids, garlic and ployp booster that I feed normally every other day and then just flakes and pellets the other days

Damn ! How much lol ? Gotta love a home blend im just to lazy and hate sea food haha

Not counting the reef roids and ployp cost $20-25 and last 3-4 months

I make my own food as well, its Mysis, shrimp and brine along with garlic and their vitamins..ALL of my fish are very healthy.. I think the cost is a lot cheaper than the prepared foods and I know what I am feeding...

Homemade fish food here as well.

If the cbb is skinny. Feed the mysis. Try mixing some other foods in with the mysis when you feed. That will help entice him to try other foods.

I feed mysis everyday and then brine a couple times a week. I throw in a few pellets every now and then too.

If not done already I think we need a new thread on homemade food recipes.
Used them on freshwater but would be interested in the saltwater mixes.

Anyone including Selcon in their concoctions?

 

[reef keeper]

I do use selcon. My fish are fat.

I feed mysis 5 days a week.

My problem is..... I have 2 fox face and a trigger.

WARNING: triggers have teeth and foxface have big spines.

My fish are all hand fed. Yikers lmao

right now I am using seachem vitality but when its gone I am switching to selcon...

your blend sounds interesting, what is the ratio of the meaty foods...

 

[derrick orosz]

I use random hand fulls until the blender is full lol

Seafood medley
Shrimp
Fresh garlic
Spiralina
Nori
Reef roids
Polyp booster
Brightwells aminOMega

Blend then scoop into ziplock feeder bag. Flatten and freeze.

I made a batch back in early December and have only used about 25% and I feed my fish three times a day

imo home made concoctions are the best way to go. fastest way to foul your water is feed pellets or flake daily and dried foods really have next to no nutrition unless you use selcon or something similar.
