Having anemone (or larger fish eatting fish) you've probably come accustomed to buying these pretty expensive "bait fish" in various frozen forms. Perhaps you're like me in that you have seen multiple fish being sold as "silversides" (each from the same company too! Just different batches from month to month).
The other day when I was in a local oriental market.. you know the ones, where all the fish is out for you to touch/smell etc.. I see these fish which look identical to silversides, they are called "smelt" (google has shown me many variants of this fish as well). The upside is these things cost about $1.29 a pound, as opposed to the 8 bucks for a 8 ounce frozen pallet.
My question is whether or not this would be good anemone chow. If these "silversides" are just like the "seaweed" that's sold for tangs and such (at $5 a serving) which can be gotten for WAY less in any asian market under the guise of nori.
