SRC Member cdckjn Posted September 25, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted September 25, 2008 I sometimes feed my fishes with market prawns but then the skimmer will have to work double-hard as then the skimmate will become a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member tunicate Posted September 26, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted September 26, 2008 HiAny advice? Can I feed my fish with prawn other than shrimp? will the fish get ill easily? Whenever my family buys prawn from the market, the head portion is cut-off & frozen as fish food. You can be surprise how much meat there is in the head.

I buy those prawn with roe in the head Chop off the head with the roe and massage/squeeze it in front of your wavemaker. Instant marine snow for all your corals and inverts. Later dig out the meat from the head and feed your fishes with it My fishes all go wild everytime I do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes can see the fishes trying to swallow those bigger ones...greedy fellows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
