Text Appearing Before Image:
If you want to replace the water volume lost through evaporation, remember one fact: the liquid has evaporated, but the salts remain. Therefore, replace the lost volume with distilled or aged tap water. Use your hydrometer to check salinity in the tank. The hydrometer will indicate when the salinity has dropped enough to use seawater instead of tap water. Optimum salinities are 1020-1025 at 75°-80°F. Do not overfeed. I feed my fish and invertebrates twice a day, and I believe it is better to feed small amounts more often rather than one large feeding each day. The more you can vary the diet, the healthier the fish will be. I prefer to feed frozen and live brine shrimp (both baby and adult forms) daily, a dry food once or twice a week, and keep marine algae in the tank. Marine algae and plankton (live, frozen, or freeze- dried) are good food sources. They help to keep the colors of the fish bright. In addition, algae is a necessary part of the diet of tangs and parrotfish. Other foods to consider are chopped beef heart, shrimp, oysters and clams, freeze dried foods such as krill euphausids, tubifex worms, and micro- and macro-plankton (which includes rotifers).
Text Appearing After Image:
When feeding invertebrates, remember that some are filter feeders and feed only at night. I use live baby brine shrimp which I place in the tank after the lights are off. Clam juice is good for flame scallops and featherduster worms. Liquid fry and finely crushed dryfoods are also 20
