Cyclop-eeze and Mandarine..

[mr. tuna]

Hey,
I bought cyclop-eeze for my mandarine, and i heard that it will fatten him up a bit. But i got the flake formula, and it would not sink.
All the other fish get to it before he even gets a chance.
any suggestions?

you can feed cyclopeeze to mandarines.......along with the pods and frozen mysis shrimp and live brine......i have a 45 gal tank with about 70 lbs of live rock and live sand been set up for 8 months i have a clown, fire fish....would it be ok to add a mandarin my lfs has one that eats live and frozen foods.........

The best option is to get the frozen stuff.

do you mean you got the freeze dried cyclopeeze? I wasn't aware they made a flake. Try soaking it in water for up to several hours it will help it sink and float around. I throw the freeze dried straight in and some floats but tons doesn't. I've tried soaking it for several hours in water but its something else to do.
