    Allan..... I used one of those floating fish feeder rings.... Keeps the food in the ring.

    Very cool, Tony... I didn't know they had something like that... or course I grew up in a trailer park. We tend to look at things a bit different than you high faluting dudes do. As long as no one bumps the trailer, thus causing a spill if you have a rimless tank, you tend to find a solution for just about anything inside or in the yard.

    My clowns were good with it... my firefish eat it as well. The coral beauty... no idea. I've had one in the past, but not during the time I used the pellets. Todd had a coral beauty in his tank, and his tank was exclusively pellet fed.

    with 2 overflows close the the center of the tank, the feeder would dump the flakes and pellets just to be sucked up by the over flow....
    I bought one of the rings and placed right under the feeder,
    keeping the flakes in place till they soaked up and sank. My vlaminigi finally grew the courage to swim up and feast on the food in the ring before anyone else... It was a kick to hear him chomping....

    That fish is timid... until he's not. He comes up and chases me around when I try to put in nori... but someone else comes in the room and he hides under the overflow.

    They also use those feeder rings in ponds. A little bigger though.

    Funny about the trailer Allan. Someone was posting on RC last week about setting up a big tank in a trailer. The responses were hilarious.

    It's due to my commanding presence and gallant stroll, Allan.
