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 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.

I buy those prawn with roe in the head :P 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 :yeah: My fishes all go wild everytime I do this. :upsidedown:

:upsidedown: later your fishes all have high blood pressure

I use Henry's gourmet food, small blended pcs of prawn meat inside. Sometimes can see the fishes trying to swallow those bigger ones...greedy fellows
