Bought a pack of Live Mysis today... and to my delight... they further enhance their nutritional level by eating Cyclopeeze :D:D:D

wah reasonable price

sounds good

can feeding mysis be good enuff to sustain SH?

Bro I believe the mysis alone can more or less satisfy the nutritional need of the SH... however one should always find ways to enrich all SH food :)

Bro I did mention that we should try to enrich all SH food... for example feeding ur Live Mysis with Cyclopeeze is a form of enrichment indirectly... variety is always good... but comparing Live Brine Shrimp with Live Mysis... I will say Live Mysis can be a form of daily pellets for the Seahorse as recommended by www.seahorse.org :)

yo jervis

glad to see u got ur hands on the live mysis :lol:

ur seahorses must be very happy ;)

Hi sis... yeah I bought another batch of Live Mysis yesterday morning (this time 2 packets)... I am currently experimenting on ways to hold them in a separate area... hopefully I can find a way that will enable me to keep the LM alive for 3 to 4 days.

Looking at the way they feed now... I feel a bit guilty feeding them dead frozen stuff :lol:

My male Brazilian Reidi in a feeding action... about 1/2 sec before it attacks :yeah:

Hahahaha... I Love this horses.......

My 1.5ft is empty now, think of using to keep SH...

Bro since your 1.5ft tank is quite low... perhaps you wanna avoid large SH species such as Brazilian Reidi... they can grow into pretty large specimens :unsure:
