Corals like turkey apparently...Thanksgiving treat for cnidarians


Recommended Posts

At least my Duncans do. I fed my them some turkey from whole foods today (carved from a bird not lunch meat, very fresh no preservatives) and they loved it! Usually I feed cyclopeeze mixed with sustainable aquatics pellets 3xs a week. All in the spirit of Thanksgiving!

Lol. Good find. My kids used to toss Cheerios in the tank but nothing would it eat. Also nothing eats mr. potato head, tv remotes, hot wheels or Legos.... weird...

 

Lol. I can only hope my kids won't do that.

My nephews do this every time they come over to visit... they like watching the bubbles come out of the toys as they sink... I think Hulk and Batman have gone deep sea diving in my tank a few times now.  Needless to say they are only allowed to watch the tank when sitting on a chair in front of it and not up close while playing haha.

So far i have gotten plastic balls and paper airplanes. Plastic balls were a hit because the return made them spin in place on the surface.

They don't eat Optimus Prime or Megatron from Transformers either. Haha :)

Darn picky eaters. They would love sideswipe I'm sure lol.

I read once that snowflake eels could eat small amounts of cooked turkey, so 2 years ago for thanksgiving I thought I'd give my big eel a little bite of the bird. She's never gone after fish - before or since, but I gave her a bitesize piece of turkey and she went INSANE: chasing everything and mouthing several fish, looking for more. Never seen an eel go THAT crazy (some of you have probably seen their hungry "dance" where they go all over the place - this was 5x worse).

I will never feed anything turkey ever again.
