Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I"ve got a SW tank with a HOB overflow; its hindering my ability to feed my fish. Lots of the foods I give my fish (flakes, frozen preparations, etc.) float so they get sucked down into the overflow pretty quickly. How does everyone else get around this problem?
Currently, I have to soak the food in a cup of water until it gets water-logged so that it sinks or remains neutrally bouyant in the water. I won't be able to do this if I'm away for a few days. Automatic feeders would dispense the food right on the surface of the water, where it would get sucked into the overflow and down into the sump.
Any suggestions on how to overcome this problem?
