whats up guys...

whats the best method for feeding frozen foods?? ive been using a large tweezer to hold a chunk of the food in the tank...but ive noticed that its the same fish that eat everything....my more shy copperband butterfly fish wont come up to the top to eat anything. same with my coral beauty. i have a seaweed clip that i attach seaweed to every couple of days...ive seen the coral beauty nipping at it a bit so im not worried about him eating. the copperband though, im concerned hes not getting any food.

What I do is thaw a piece in a cup with a bit of water and feed small portions of it at a time until it is emptied.

I do the same as amphiprion. I will also add Xtreme garlic oil to the frozen food. It is suppose to help the fish fight off disease. I have seen it help a problem my fish were having with swollen eyes.

Best way to feed without overfeeding, is thaw it out in a cup, and feed it to your fish with a turkey blaster/baster. Not sure of spelling.
