Just got a butterfly and I am looking for a flake food equivalent for
butterfly fish. I hate making brine shrimp. Any help is appreciated

P.E. Mysis shrimp should be good.

Also, one other silly question. Since it is a frozen food. How do you feed
it? Do you drop it in the tank, food clip it, etc

I think our club ordered that from Premium Aquatics. And
you can thaw it out in a small dish with some tank water,
then pour it in the tank when it is broken up.

just make sure its not frozen when you feed it to them thats the worst
mistake you can make other than that if you do not over feed I found that
they tend to find the food if you place it in anywhere, anyone have any
better ways?
