My fish wont eat mysis shrimp?

[Thomasflynn15]

I thought mysis was the ultimate food for fish that won't eat. why are my fish rejecting it? I have smaller fish so would cutting it up after thawing help?

Does it seem too big for them? If so, then yes, chopping it up may help.

Artemia brine shrimp i got told was the go to food that most fish eat.just it isn't very nutrious apparently

different fish like different things. You should feed a variety of foods to find out what they like, and don't like.

Chopping it up while its still frozen is a heck of a lot easier

Never heard that Mysis is the go to food...my fish won't eat Mysis, I've tried many different brands even P.E Mysis.

Try brine shrimp, lobster eggs, marine eggs, as many different frozen foods you can find, I also grate octopus, which they love.

What kind of fish are being picky eaters for you?

 

[Reef Nutrition]

Fish eggs are a really good option. We've heard from many hobbyists and importers that fish eggs usually do the trick to get fish to eat and then you can get them on to other food types.

My fish aren't huge fans of mysis either. They'll eat it mind you, but not with as much gusto. This is their favorite:

I lost these 2 fish because I couldn't find a food they would eat either. GL on finding them a food source. If they aren't tank raised, they want live food.
