O orbitrod Apr 23, 2007 #4 So just by feeding them a variety of meat, their scales will start to look better? Second how much do I feed. I know the bottle says enough for them to consume in 3 minutes, but I was wondering on what yall have to say about that.

So I would say Cyclopeeze is a great food for them. here's a link to the special food that he makes. http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=RR-FOOD-6&Category_Code=Mysis

T txvoodoo Apr 23, 2007 #8 Scott (Ashlar) is right in that we try to feed them all that, but our clowns are finicky They do NOT like plain mysis. They DO like that Marine Cuisine that Matt mentioned, as well as the Emerald Entree by the same company.
