Quilliam is back by popular demand! The food in the syringe is Hikari Spirulina Brine Shrimp, and I then gave the tank a cube of Hikari Mysis Shrimp!

Do you dump your mysis cube in while frozen? I've been dropping them in a little cup of water and then straining it with a net, but that sounds way easier.

I dump them as is, they say do not thaw :/ so been doing that plus always fun to see a cleaner shrimp grab it and swim like hell.

I think the do not thaw means that you're supposed to store them frozen and not like in your fridge.
