Diana, Dragon faced pipefish need way more pods or new born shrimp them a mandarin and are not easy to keep fed long term. My tank now, after my move is loaded with pods for some reason and dragonfaces hunt all over the bottom unless they see baby shrimp in the water, then they will eat them...

I am very happy to say that the Magic Juice that I kind of invented for my wife is still working much better than medication and has no side effects. With MS she used to have terrible pains all over mostly at night. Those pains come from inflammation and the juice which is mostly made from...

Here is me speaking at that Veterans talk. The guy in the foreground, Phil Keith, wrote the book about Fire Support Base Illingworth. The battle I was in and why they asked me to speak. He was in the Air Force and was shot down and had a bullet go right through his chest. He received a Silver...

If you want to give them a variety, (that they don't need by the way). You can use clams, oysters, mussels and fish eggs.

This week I added a purple dottyback, Coral croucher gobi, queen anthius, yellow wrasse and female mandarin. I only want one more fish, a dragon faced pipefish then my tank will be at capacity. It's actually over capacity now but almost all my fish are very small and that yellow wrasse will...

Looks delicious, I had that for dinner last night. But if you left out the scallops and shrimp, it would be a much more nutritious food. Those table shrimp are only the muscle as are the scallops and have little nutrition for fish. The clams are really all you need. The Salmon isn't bad but...

Ben, that is to long an answer to post here, but I wrote a thread about it and have been posting about it for years and wrote a book. You can read about immunity here. A discussion on Immunity

You can buy clam cubes but we don't always have to feed something from an LFS with a nice picture of an anglefish on the front. Those commercial foods are frozen to a much lower temperature than out home freezers so I would assume most of the bacteria is dead which you may like. I want living...

I also found this while researching. It came from "The Paleo Diet" which is probably not the most scientific of research organizations but I am pretty sure the list of nutrients was devised by some Government source. (or PeeWee Hermans diary) Of course these values are for people. "The Paleo...

Thank you Dan, I enjoy writing them. :D

I am sure mussels are also very good but I don't have any nutrition facts on them. They are also much cheaper than clams as many people don't like to eat them. I eat them but prefer clams or oysters

Eating some clams and other things

Your tridacnids may get the horrors if they saw that. :eek:

Clams, the absolute best food for salt water fish The title says it all. If I could only feed one type of food, it would be regular, common, cheap, (near the coasts of the US) available, clams. I myself feed clams almost every day to all my fish and have been since the 60s. Virtually all the...

I took a video.

Very hard to film a very pregnant bluestripe pipefish because in that condition they stay in the rocks. But I tried. These guys are always pregnant.

Tomorrow about 6:00 I will be speaking at the Chocolate Factory in Riverhead on 58. It is going to be about Viet Nam, not fish which is my favorite topic. But I was asked to speak about this so if anyone wants to go to sleep, come by. I didn't get top billing, I am behind a few people from a...

I just spent a week trying to get a drug approval for my wife who has MS. To use the "Simple, Government website" you have to be Houdini and he is dead. I finally got someone on the phone after waiting an hour on hold and he said no one can figure it out. Like Duh. That is because they hire...

I would like to get another circulation pump because this tank is bigger than my last one but I don't like what I see. I really don't like Korilia's because they are really cheaply made and get covered in growth to fast. I like the Gyre's but they are all programmable and I don't want to or...

I have a few fish that I have never seen the entire fish at one time. I once had a brutela or cusk eel for 18 years and only saw it maybe three times and that's when I looked at the tank in the middle of the night with a flashlight. I killed it by accident when I removed the rock and didn't...
