Hey.. anyone know of any food for like brittles and crabs ( mithrax and sallys ) that will sink to the bottom. I am having trouble finding food for those guys that I can get down to the bottom of the tank where they always are ..

Most of the frozen foods work good for feeding bottom dwellers.
Shrimp, squid, krill, clam, etc ...
Naturally, you have to let it thaw first - then take a piece and squeeze out any air in the meat with your finger/thumb.
Should sink fine then.
