She eats freeze dried krill soaked in selcon, vita chem, and Zoe mixed with other frozen foods fortified with the same vitamins. She eats the occasional large morsel of other food but this is probably 90% of her diet or more.



Yes I do. He’s the meanest sohal I’ve ever had, too. More tangs will be added soon, will slow him down! :)
Back when i had a FOWLR i fed my lion and puffers frozen krill that came in a plastic container that were all singles.

Not real nutritious (freeze dried) typically, but I mix them with other frozen foods and soak in vitamins I am hoping it will be a good component of their diet. The other fish eat other things, of course :)

What is the difference between frozen and freeze dried krill?

Frozen theoretically should be more nutritious.

I COMPLETELY Understand! Once the winter tires are up on the rack and the summer tires are on the car, I'm racing or showing more than I am reefing... BTW Good to see you got your name back...

Awesome thank you! I have a 800 watt finex running now and the thing never seems to turn off and it’s driving my Apex nuts
I don’t remember what I read that led me down to the path I went, but I remember hearing about some of the giant heaters having some issues.
