What dry food do you feed your clown/how often?

I feed ON formula 1 and 2 pellets and freeze dried blood worms at night, sometimes a combination or just one of the 3 depending on time. Then I feed marine cuisine and homemade food (squid, shrimp, very finely chopped nori, clams, mussels, oyster, and whatever other fish products are laying around when I make it) 2x during the day.
 
Question on feeding frozen foods. I feed frozen mysis, i put the cube in a cup and add some tank water to melt it then feed to the fish.

How does everyone else do it, I always hear the frozen water that the mysis is in is bad, but i have a difficult time straining them. They usually get stuck in the strainer.

You can use one a stainless coffee pot inserts, some polyester window sheer or a coffee filter. If you want to try the window sheer, shoot me a PM with your address and I can send you some.

Feed #1 Rod's Food Fish Eggs. <<< Pellet sized and perfect for my baby clowns who try to compete with the bigger tank-mates.

Feed #2 Rod's Food Pacific Plankton <<< It's Mysis but unlike Mysis(freshwater) this stuff comes from saltwater. Very high in nutrients. :thumbsup:

Feed #3 The Original Rod's food <<< At this point my fish eat little. Most of the food goes to the corals.

Feed #4 Another batch of Rod's Fish Eggs. Makes me feel good to see the hungry wrasses, blennies, and clowns get one last snack before lights out. :beer:
 
Before I had anthias, I only fed once a day, and maybe even skipped a day now and then, of a varied diet containing spectrum pellets, flake, mysis, cyclopseze.
Now I have to feed 3-4 times a day mysis for anthias.
I only feed a little more volume than before, just spread out more, but all my fish benefit from the multi feedings, so...
I do agree, I have to compensate by more aggressive skimming and WC's
