SRC Member panlee Posted September 12, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 12, 2003 When you shop for Frozen Mysis Shrimp, you might want to know there is one similar package without the word "Mysis". This is the package with the word "Mysis". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member panlee Posted September 12, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted September 12, 2003 This is the package without the word "Mysis". The colour of the packages are the same. The content analysis however are different. So these two are not the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Tanzy Posted September 13, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 13, 2003 Looking at the analysis of the products, it seems that the Shrimp is better than the Mysis Shrimp.

SRC Member DaY Posted September 13, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 13, 2003 i wonder what the size difference in the shrimp between the "mysis shrimp" and the "normal shrimp" package? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member blue.tang Posted September 13, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 13, 2003 that one w/o mysis is pirated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member panlee Posted September 13, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted September 13, 2003 The size, colour and almost everything is the same. Except for the word "Mysis" and content analysis. I am not sure if the one without "mysis" is actual mysis. But when I ask to buy mysis shrimp in LFS I was given the one without "mysis". When I highlighted to the LFS they then realised there is a difference. So to be sure I now look for the word "mysis". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member IcecruncherZ Posted September 14, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 14, 2003 That is not true. If you wish to feed shrimp to corals, esp LPS, you should only use Mysis. Anything larger is Very Bad for the coral. Also Mysis is much higher in nutrition content than for eg Brine Shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything larger is Very Bad for the coral. Also Mysis is much higher in nutrition content than for eg Brine Shrimp. This shrimp looks more nutritionous than mysis. Anyway, mysiids are freshwater animals and it can't sustain marine fish forever. They need to be fed fresh seafood once in a while. Quote Warning: Heavy handed moderator in operation.

SRC Member IcecruncherZ Posted September 14, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 14, 2003 Are they a too large for LPSes? Cos I bought a packet and it seems so much larger than mysis, so I use it for my fishes only... any idea what kinda shrimp it is? (if there even is a specific name for 'em) Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member drewy Posted September 14, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 14, 2003 actually hor, the one with the word 'mysis' has larger size shrimp whereas the other offers much smaller sized shrimp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Chris Posted September 15, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 15, 2003 I accidentally bought 3 packs of the 'shrimps' and fed them to my fish. It is bigger in size and all my fish take it. Even my Ricordia Yuma and sun coral are eating it. So, I think no problem. Seems quite nutritious.

SRC Member Chris Posted September 15, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 15, 2003 Maybe Hikari has switched to this 'shrimp' to replace 'mysis shrimp' and will stop producing 'mysis'? That's why they used the same colour? Quote I think (marine) therefore I am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
