[rackman]

nori everyday

i rotate with rods, flake, or nls pellets every couple of days

and somtimes some cyclopeze

 

[Nanook]

Well, I like to mix it up a lot and have some staples I feed. Hikari mysis shrimp, Rod's food, frozen scallop, frozen krill, frozen shrimp, cyclopeeze, Formula I & Formula II flakes, NLS pellets (all sizes), Spirulina flakes, dried nori, oyster eggs and occasional fish roe. I don't feed all of these everyday, but throughout the week the tank sees most of these.

Frozen Spirulina Brine, Frozen Mises Shrimp, Rod's, Nori, & Spectrum pellets. I feed every other day, mixing up between foods listed.

Is there a particular nori you use?

oyster eggs

Is this oyster feast? or straight up oyster eggs?

 

[Mister_Palmer]

I feed:
Flakes
Rod's
Seaweed Sheets

I usually feed a little bit of everything on a daily basis. Like a pinky-nail size chunk of Rod's, some flakes, and a piece of SW.
I do that because some fish only eat certain things. I'm looking at you Cardinalfish...

I don't target feed per se, but I will put my hand in the tank with some flakes and put it at the very bottom for my Watchman.
He's slow, and hasn't really figured out in 3 months that he's going to have to move up a bit to get some flakes before they're gone.

i feed rods food, spectrum pellets, cyclopeze, mysis and a mix of flakes different brands. but i really don't like flakes because a lot of it sticks on top and goes straight to the overflows. and i tend to over feed that is why i bought a new skimmer.

 

[smoothdog]

I mix ON prime reef and formula 2 flakes and feed the mix and spectrum pellets as a daily staple. Green and purple Noriega every other day. Then throw in some Rod's and mysis a few times a week for variety.

Well that sounds like everything and the sink:beer:

i would tell you the kind i use, but my keyboard does not have asian letters. it's just the green roasted seaweed from the asian market on olive.

 

[bradleym]

For all my fish I feed pellets daily with the occasional chunk of thawed mysis. For my anemones I feed about twice a week with mysis, silversides, or scallops as the mood strikes me. I'm trying keep it simple cuz I don't have much of a setup and can't really get around to water changes either so I target feed even though the fish are 3 clowns 2 damsels and an engineer goby.

 

[Koddie Doo]

Anyone use selcon?

and what pellets is everyone using, I always thought that pellets floated and would go down overflows...

 

[Nanook]

I have been trying to remember to soak my NLS pellets in Selcon because my tangs all have HLLE. Problem is I forget to do this more often than not.

What's up stranger???

All my pets love me:lol:

 

[bradleym]

I use New Life Spectrum Marine Fish Formula. And when I feed I put it in a small container with tank water and then after it sinks I feed with water and pellets in a turkey baster.

 

[Reeferhead]

4 different kinds of nori (rotate each day)

Rotate one of these each day as well:
2 different kinds of rods food
Formula 1 flake
mysis

 

[Lady R]

I try to mix it up a little,.Some Rod's and cyclops alternating with PE mysis and Spectrum pellets .The tangs enjoy dried seaweed twice a week... Sorry don't post much just like to read and learn !!!!

 

[JPhan1]

I feed NLS pellets and nori daily and I rotate between rods, mysis soaked in selcon and my stripped burrfish and trigger I just feed them whole baby clams from Asian market also soaked in selcon

 

[smoothdog]

A Panaboy AND a reefer96 sighting in the same night! Who'd of thunk it?

I use selcon from time to tome when I remember.

 

[twiggyb]

I feed 2 cubes of marine cuisine packets every day to the 65 and a mixture of PE mysis, blood worms, and reef plankton to my 30g with my chromis and OSFF. A small squeeze of that mix to my mantis shrimp which isn't as mean as any mantis I've seen. She doesn't like violence too much I guess :lol: i spot feed my pink spotted goby since he developed a fear of coming out in the open for some reason. I throw in some flakes every now and then, but not too often. It kicks my nitrates up more. No skimmer so I gotta keep it clean
