i recently got a spotted as well. how did you train it to eat frozen mysis?
|
The little guy was eating frozen brine when he was at the shop. However, after I got him, I still had to put the brine on the rocks since he refuse to eat from the water column. Over time, he learned that food comes from the baster and from that point on I was able to train him to eat from the water column. This took about 2 month though! When he was coinhabiting the tank with a seahorse, he was weaned onto frozen mysis, and I think it was a matter of "monkey see, monkey do" and they would fight over mysis.
Patience and keen observation is important. However, I have seen *many* mandarin on frozen food here in Sydney. No sure why!

What kind of camera did you use for the pics?
|
Jennifer, these photos were all taken with a Canon EOS 10D with the 180 f3.5 macro lens. The super macro's were taken with the MP-E65 lens and most FTS are with the 70-200 2.8 IS. I almost always use a tripod.
I know people out there have even nicer nano tanks than mine! So enter it in the December competition!:
