What should I feed my CUC?
This is what I've got so far for my CUC:
2x Nassarius Snails 4x Blue Legged Hermits 2x Peppermint Shrimp 2x Brittle Starfish Do they all eat algae? I only have freshwater food right now. Cichlid Flakes, some pellets and then I also have some frozen Brine Shrimp, should I put in some frozen brine shrimp or should I go buy some saltwater food? Thanks. |
well what you have there peppermint shrimp will eat aptasia
the brittle stars will eat drap off the sand bed or bare bottom. you said you have a cuc i am guessing that you have a sea cucumber if so you sdont need to feed it will filter your sand for you if you have any.... spirlina flake s are great for the tank for what ever fish you have in there. pellets are good too not to many only a couple to pilot to see if they go after them. |
sorry my CUC meant Clean up crew, acronym. Thanks though for the response! I wonder if I have any aiptasia for my peppermints to eat, hmmmm. I have some white miniature tree like corals growing, very small, like the size of a dime.

if you are worried about food for them and don't want to go out and buy stuff try feeding them some shrimp if you have any in the freezer, i used cooked salad shrimp for my CUC before i actually added fish and inverts that i needed to feed mysis to, just chop it up and drop it in everything should be happy with it

If you have fish and feed the fish, the rest will just eat left overs and algae.. I don't feed CUC separately.. some brittle stars will need to be fed, but I wouldn't consider those CUC
|
i used to feed my cuc left over algae pellets from my freshwater tank before my tank was fuly established. that seemed to work. the hermit crabs just attack the things
