Fish Feeding Question

[Jkedra]

Ok, I got 1 chromi, 1 domino, 1 yellow tang, 1 blue hippo tang, 1 sleeper head goby, and two clownfish (one male one female). I currently feed them mysis shrimp once a day. Some people told me to fully switch from flakes to shrimp, but some people have been telling me to use both for nutrition. What should I do?

Read the labels on the food. Most of your protein is in the flakes or pellets, Use a good food like Spectrum or Ocean Nutrition. I use the frozen food to get a fish to eat, once its eating it's pellets soaked in Vitamin C and Kent's Amino Acid

I feed my fish a mix thru out the day

Yea I also got a pack of those fish "chips" from Instant ocean. I'll try out those for a change...but as far as the fish eating, they eat the shrimp or flakes like crazy

When you feed them one type of food there is no way to know if they get are getting all the nutrition they need. The more variety the better and you can pick one kind per day or mix them all every day.

Dont deny them seaweed...very good for their color(tangs)

Yes, for now Im not using seaweed, because my tangs eat my algae...When theres gonna be no algae, I'll start using seaweed.
