Try feeding, small uncook prawn meat (size of your eatting rice) and golden pearls

thanks ... er but what is golden pearl ??

[Siput]

I feed my bubbles and durian frozen mysis shrimp and live brine...and whatever pellet food that happens to fall on them while feeding the fish...so far so good...

hee , how u actually target feedlive BS ... using sringe ??

[flubberina13]

A syring or pipette or turkey baster will do for sun corals and for other corals if they are within reach if feeding BBS or cyclopeeze.

If feeding by pellets, pre-soak the pellets with a few drops of tank water first.

Silverfish is fine but must cut into minute bits first.

If prawns, try the white or grey ones because they 'smell' worse than tiger...

For those bits of food, use a plastic tong easily available at most lfs...
