ReefWeeds Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 I'm pretty sure Bubba doesn't think I can see him. I saw him lunge after a feeder shrimp but he missed! 9 Quote Link to comment

I bought a Pom Pom crab but put it in the macro tank because I realized Bubba would eat it for sure!! I will definitely try to get a video! I am getting more feeder shrimp hopefully in the next couple days. I only had two left ? 2 Quote Link to comment

I mean they are "live" when they go in there. lol J/K I'm sure they count as food as long as you don't get any decorative shrimp. lol I do want cherry shrimp for my betta tank... They'd prolly make good snacks though lol 1 Quote Link to comment

I'll have to figure out how much they are per shrimp - I ordered 250 for $90 - I'll be putting in a few af a time and the rest will go in my various other tanks until Bubba needs a snack 2 Quote Link to comment

RIP Sebastian Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 He's cool! Also, I got really confused when I saw LPS in there. Then I realized this wasn't a weedy tank! 1 Quote Link to comment

They run the risk of eating themselves to death. The good part is if I'm going away, I think putting a few shrimp in will hold him over until I'm back. So in that respect, feeding live is easier 2 Quote Link to comment

I'm sure it just counts food. I was joking. Because Kat said that copepods count as food not livestock. So I would put feeder shrimp in the same category. Now, if you put cleaner shrimp worth $40 in there and Bubba-Not eats it... You can't go saying "Oh! it was food!" 1 Quote Link to comment
