:lol: Amusing conversation - the hobby really transcends all language barriers eh?

Anyway, you can try getting the zooplankton bottle from Henry at ML ... he fed his purple queens in front of me and they do eat that stuff. Ended up buying 5 of them =D

By the way, anyone knows WHY my queens refuse to come out from their hiding places in the LR? Been 3 days already ... :angry:

Bro, anthias take time to acclimatise, if there are more of them, they acclimatise faster... they normally gather more courage to swim out if there are more than 3-4 of them in a group... :)

Getting them to start feeding and regular feeding is different la.

Ya but osmosis say the PQ and orange anthias dun eat so i think BBS and zooplankton will be a better for them to start eating.... anyway FYI mysis dun have much nutrients too :lol::lol:

So, wats a good recommendation? My PQ really live up to its names, very picky and dun eat much... one bite here and one bite there, den that's it! :angry:

I feed frozen spinach, mysis/BS, Cyclopeeze and a small cube if henry's recipe very night, so far the PQs been with me for1 month plus, dunno if they get suffocient nutrients....

The Dispars however are eating like pigs!! ;)

Those carry high phrosphate content in them.... no good choice for feeding especially when anthias need feeding regularly........... Try wild caught zooplankton or IMO BBS would be good

hi,

are you saying the EAN zooplankton has no phosphate?

i thought cyclops are also wild harvested zooplanks.

I tried the frozen zoos, not impressive only

bigger chunks.
