Looking for suggestions for F8 feeding.

Post by Snake Eater »

Staple food is snails. Ramshorn and pond. About 80% of their diet is made up of snails, higher at times depending how many are in the breeding tanks.

Also feed bloodworms and shell on shrimp sometimes.

Just wondering if anyone else has any suggestions for food for F8's to help keep their teeth in check and give them some more variety as well.

I give mine ghosts and mysis. Not as crunchy, though.

Mine love krill, especially after I've soaked them in garlic gaurd and zoe.
