xiaoxiy Posted November 30, 2014 Author Share Posted November 30, 2014 Awesome video! (though I listed to it without any sound) I wanted a couple of pipefish, but am worried they would slip through the return grate thingy in my biocube. They're pretty smart fish. Unless one is dislodged from it's sleeping place, they tend do a fantastic job of avoiding the overflow and powerhead. My fellow that got pulled through the powerhead was just having a rough night. I pulled him from the sump 2 minutes earlier because I had found him sitting in my filter sock when I went to change it out. On the bright side, other than some heavy breathing, he seems ok. He was swimming around and eating today. Link to comment
k4ndyk1ng Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Any updates on the pipefish, are they eating well and has he pulled through? Link to comment

k4ndyk1ng Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 They're alive and his tail is healing up! What are they eating. I'm looking at some because they look cool and they eat aefw, but I fear they are like mandarins... Link to comment
xiaoxiy Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 Mine were eating cyclops at the LFS, and now will eat Mysis, but only the eyes. Seriously, they will go through all the floating mysis and pick off the eyes and touch nothing else. Link to comment

xiaoxiy Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Is that bak Choy?how are you cooking it? Bok Choy it is! I blanch it for 30 seconds in a brine (salt + water) solution. Then I drain it, chill it, cut off the stems (and discard), and dry off the leaves. Then I quickly stir fry it in oil for 20 seconds with garlic and salt to taste. Link to comment
