how do you make freez dried mysis shrimp sink?

[crazyguy34834]

I want to feed my fish and invertabrates mysis shrimp but it keeps floating to the top. any ideas?

I have tried soaking the shrimp in liquid vitamins but it doesn't get all the air out

I use the frozen stuff and let it sit in a cup until it floats to the bottom then swish my finger to split it up.

If you have the cubes, my mom use to use them on her FW tropical fish tank. She'd take them and soak them in the water a bit and then push them onto the side of the tank and they'd stick there. Not sure if you have the cubes. If not you could probably just soak them in some water from your tank or some distilled water until they sink.

i put it in tank water in a small cup, keep it in the fridge a few days till it sink.

i hold it in my fingers and rub it between them and in seconds it thaws and falls

freeze dried, not frozen Popimp.

I have the same problem. I'll try the refrigerator trick.

Just soak it in water long enough and eventually it will sink.
