food for fish

[systemfan15]

I plan on having clowns,tangs, anemones,dragonets, snails, hermit
crabs, emerald crabs, shrimp, and some other things...what kinds of
food would be reccomended for this creatures?? A variety of food would
be nice.

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#tough to say... normal flake food might not be right fo all the criters...the tangs for example might need to eat a misxed diet of see weed and some types of shrimp? you can use the freeze dried seaweed stuff that you atach with a food clip for the clowns I personaly feed mine a mixed diet of frozen mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and formula 1 flake food (on different days of course) them seem to be doing well and have very good color. Howevr I have heard that clowns havea tendancy to get hooked on brine shrimp an then wont accept any thing else weather its true or not Im not sure.the Hermits will eat any thing left over...their not very picky. The snails should eat algae or detritus (sp) depending on the type so no worries there. It migt be helpful if you tell us the exact species of fish you intend to keep. Any way take it with a grain of salt the best advice I can give you is just do some research and know what the natural diet of the fish is and plan accordingly good reference book is "The natural reef aquarium" by John H. Tullock. any way later hope this helps.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#tigersax7#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
