Ask friends or order online. There's a thriving planted hobby where I live

Wow real nice! So when I had salt I had some pipe fish and mandrines and mostly they'd only eat live copepods. I had a large crocodile pipe that loved frozen mysis though. What do the freshwater ones eat? Also love those deep blue 80's.

What do the freshwater ones eat? .

Low volume of frozen food (when a hurricane hit and knocked the local live fish food supply off a week or two). Mostly they love live brine. If I can sustain a Daphnia magna culture or dry brine egg hatchery project, I would be sitting pretty, but not so much yet.

Simply amazing! Any details on your setup would be appreciated!

Daphnia are good, have a tub with mesh screen to keep mozzies out then add some hay and chicken manure to the water. Lots of algae = loads of daphnia

From current back to the start.
