Hey all...I have some questions about frozen foods and how you feed them.
First of all...if you get the kind that is cubed ( think most of it is right?) do you feed all of your tanks the same thing or just break the cubes up and only feed part of it? Do you thaw the food in a little dish and then dump the dish in? Do you thaw it and then feed it to the tanks through a syringe? Have you found any creative ways of doing this? My roommate tends to smack it against the counter and grab a piece of the brine shrimp for her puffers and not a whole cube, and I'd been grabbing a whole cube and feeding most of it to my 46, then some to each of my other tanks until it was gone.
AND question #2 I took a package of frozen food out of the freezer...was showing my parents how neat it was and how much the fish love it...and accidentally set the package down and forgot about it overnight!! I popped it back in the freezer the next morning, but do you think it'll be ok to feed or should I just toss it and not risk it fouling my tanks or making my fish sick? The bummer of it is that out of like 20 cubes I'd only used 3 of them....so that's such a waste...but of course it was my fault for leaving it out
