Does anyone have eels? What do you feed them? What about Lion Fish? One of my fav's. What do you feed them? Anemones? Do they actually chew their food? lol jk What about filter corals and inverts? Do you spot feed them? What with?

Eels lionfish you can feed them live fish for variety but it's usually cheaper to buy frozen prawn or sometimes shrimp from a grocery store or other meaty foods. Anemones varies from each one to each, agansoo has some I believe. filter corals simply filter, you can add liquid food to the water column if you want but then you can run into the problem of too much food leftover. I have button polyps and I spot feed them with frozen bloodworms and frozen brine shrimp and they pick up flakes sometimes when they float by them.

Cool! If you ever have the chance to video them actually snatching something I'd love to see it.

Some people have an alergic reaction to bloodworms. I'm not sure what the reaction is but I don't think it's very nice. Well thats all I know about that.

I feed my SW fish Ocean Nutrition Flakes, frozen brine, frozen bloodworms, and San Francisco Bay frozen Omnivore cubes. I feed them each kind on kind of a random schedule. I don't have any system to which kind I feed. I just make sure they get a good mix. I also use Two Fishes ZoPlan some but I just started using it since I got Zoanthids.

The Freshies get pellets, flakes, lettuce, bloodworms and earth worms on a no system basis also.

Thanks Gozer

O yea that's right gozer, on the package they do say some people may have an allergic reaction though they just say to wash your hands afterwards. Wonder if you would still have one even if you washed your hands.

I don't want to find out. I only touch them with the plastic they come in. YUCK. Grossest food on the fishy menu, from a human perspective.

Slimy, yet satisfying.
