Mostly pain, regret, and sorrow.
What have you tasted??
- Thread starter saveafish
- Start date
The company rep from Marubeni, the makers of many Japanese fish feeds, eats Otohime (fish food) as a snack.
One of our customers kept running out of one of our phytoplankton concentrates. Turns out his Japanese tech was spreading it on bread and calling it liquid sushi
LOL!!! That sales rep deserves a bonus for going to such lengths!
Personally, the only thing I've tasted (and it's pretty bad!) is LIVE BABY BRINE SHRIMP when I suck on the airline tubing to get the siphon started. It's quite vile; even fish shouldn't eat that stuff without it having a nice rinse first
You got to come to South Florida. There are few restaurants with lionfish on the menu

Your supposed to have cocktail sauce with the shrimp

I'm not sure that I would want to eat a decorative fish. It just seems like they're much better options on the menu.
In tropical and subtropical Atlantic waters, lionfish are an invasive species. So the idea is to try and get rid of them...though it is kind of like peeing into the wind at this point

yup. you can pee into the wind but any mention as to peeing in your tank as a viable way to start the biologic process without subjecting a live creature to toxic and torturous environments meets with threats to ban....... hmmmmmm...AND page dos

I laugh every time I see some poor soul who doesn't understand how to start a siphon without using their mouth.

I lived in SFL for the first 18 years of my life, and central florida for the following 5 years. Never saw lionfish on the menu during that time. They had to go and start eating it after I moved away.

Nope. I was a youngin when my cousin taught me how to steal gas out of a car. But beyond that it doesn't take much thought at all to see that all you have to do is fill the hose up. It doesn't matte if you fill it by sucking or from the sink or by just dunking it. Long as the hose is full the siphon will run.
We'll blame the lionfish invasion on your moving away
Finally, we have someone to blame :lol:

I've gotten water in my mouth on occasion when doing water changes, but have never voluntarily tasted anything from the tank.
Next thing you know, you'll be like that smoking commercial where that chick runs around licking flyswatters, dumpsters, etc. Then again, what do I know - keep trying stuff and keep this thread going. I want to know what everything tastes like now. You sound like the perfect guinea pig.

I've never been too nervous about tasting the water from my tank (I've gotten a few mouthfuls when siphoning) because I also like to swim in the ocean. I have had an open brain squirt water directly in to my mouth once while I was moving it from one tank to another though. It tasted far more bitter than normal salt water, or maybe that was my mind playing trick on me because it was so gross.
If I ever get my hands on a Mantis shrimp, I'll raise it up nice and big, and then I'll taste it reeeeeeal good. Poached in butter with some salt and garlic.
