![]() Aww Jeez, I might have poisoned Cleo
![]() I just went to feed the fish and the frozen stuff smelled kinda rank. I guess the liquid garlic disguised the smell last night .... ![]() I keep the DT food separate from the QT, so only the Firefish, Kole and Gramma ate this batch I keep the thawed mysis etc in a small, covered dish in the beerfridge I use it up in 2-4 days, then thaw more I'll have to keep a closer eye on my habits and smell the food closer before I use it Now I feel like a murderer ![]() |

![]() Why do you pre thaw and store rather than just thawing before you feed them?

![]() I have a weird routine of feeding frozen... I basically keep everything frozen and cut shavings of them (mysis, clams, mussels and shrimps), then I throw them in a cup of ro/di water and stir. Within 30 seconds its all thawed out and at this point I strain, rinse again with ro/di water, apply garlic and let it sit for 5 min. Right after I throw the entire concussion in a pint of rodi water and feed the tank.
So far it's been working well and haven't had any casualties or issues with the food going bad. Also my kole finally found the algae clip and it picks at it all day (usually its clean at the end of the day). If I don't add the sea veggies clip, the kole checks the spot periodically during the day, it's quite funny to watch.
