feeding tool for anemone

[susan2626]

Does anyone know where to find long stainless steel or plastic tongs with very small "pincers" so I can place a bit of silverside or krill into my nem's mouth? Been using my fingers - kitchen tongs are too big. Don't want to use turkey baster - too much of a blast. thanks

Try a Kent 'Sea Squirt'.

I skewer the silversides onto a wooden kebob and my clown grabs it away, feeding it to the nearest anemone.

I use a bamboo skewer to place pieces of food to my anemones or LPS. If you need a longer stick, just tied it to a stick with rubber band. I use a lab disposable plastic dropper to feed my fish and other animals. I just replace it very week or so.

Here is a website for long tweezers. I purchased some other instruments from this place that I use for cutting corals. Take a look, they have some with small tips... GREAT website & good prices!!
