What are you using for them to hitch?

reefD · 04/17/2006, 07:22 PM

the hitch on a tube that runs to the skimmer. they also hitch on the macro that is in the tank with them. and they hitch on ech other when one has a hold....lol but serious ....heres some pictures.
this is the couple on the skimmer tube. they hitch here alot and at night they both sleep here.

this one shows them hitching to each other!...

reefD · 04/17/2006, 07:32 PM

anyways they are now eating frozen mysis. for extra nutrition i will be soaking mysis in selcon. they gooble the food up at each feeding. I researched and researched and feel that if the mysis is used and soaked in addatives two feedings a day is plenty. i was also told that if i do this i should feel confident that a fast day wont effect them in a negative way.
