I dunno if we are talking the same sizes? Just to be sure, the chunk I am feeding is usually 2mm x 2mm x 2mm. I cut up that small cube, defrost, turn off the pump and let it sink into the frogspawn's mouth then turn the pump back on after a couple minutes.

If that is big I'll try to chop up the shrimp even smaller.

I meant 2-3 single/individual pieces of mysis off of a cube, no chunks.

It's not hard to over feed a tank especially when you think you are on the right path. I also like to rinse the Mysis a little to get the juices off it can be a potent as the Mysis it's self.
