ghost feeding

By feeding your tank a couple of days a week, it will help maintain bacteria levels and the tank won't get the double ammonia whammy (from the food and the fish) when you do finally add fish

go for the pellets, they're easier. just drop a few in every 3 days or so

just curious, and not to hijack, but would reefroids or phyto serve the same purpose? or is that more coral food

No problem you don't want to start an entire thread just for that but Coral food

thank you everybody!

they would serve the same purpose, if you have corals that eat it it would be probably be better but IMO, its more expensive to keep your tank going with those and pellets get the job done pretty handily and for cheaper. And I wouldn't use mysis because I'm lazy and can't be bothered to defrost it etc.

BTW Troni, sorry to hear of the loss.. hopefully we can track do the cause? I'm kinda with Pat on the parasite thing, cause its strange for the inverts to be unaffected, if there was a parameter problem which it sounds like there wasnt. did you ever have ich or anything like it in the past? (not that ich was the cause)
