They don't bother anything that I've seen and I have them with Candycane gobies and they're really small but they do have their pistol shrimp bodyguards. 2 Quote Link to comment

Have you ever seen a pistol shrimp protect them in a tank? That would be so cool to see. I'm also gonna try you and WV advise about the frozen cubes. Going to try and strain it first, have to find a strainer that has a small size so I don't loose the mysis and algae. 2 Quote Link to comment

Try it out and see if it makes a difference. I don’t even rinse mine. I just plop it in. If I was feeding larger amounts I might. 1 Quote Link to comment

When did the algae start and what did I change, well I stopped feeding frozen all the time around the time the algae started. Coincidence?? I thought I should get a different food for the clownfish and so I grabbed flakes. I wonder if that is the problem. People talked about frozen having lots of phosphate so I got nervous and switched. 🤔🤔 1 Quote Link to comment

Easy thing to try either way. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yea, I've seen it a few times. The fish gives it some sort of signal and they raise up and start snapping like mad. The rest of the fish haul ass away from it. 34 minutes ago, DSFIRSTSLTWATER said: I guess it's possible that I may over feed...it's just the clown eating it..you know how hard it is to feed a single clownfish lmao 😂 Figure the stomach of a fish is a little larger than its eye. 3 Quote Link to comment

I think frozen food like LRS is healthier than dry foods imo. 3 1 Quote Link to comment
