Default feeding

I had a spotted mandarin I bought to clean up some flat worms in my 20. it started taking Hikari mysis. it was fat and healthy. lived over 2.5 Years then i had to move my tank. biological upset killed everything. i made a feeding tube from a test kit (sample taker Thing) and extended it with airline tubing that was stiffened with wire. it allowed me to place the food with the fish. in a community tank the more aggressive fish scoop it all if you dont. it worked for me. i miss my mandarin.luck2u!

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
