Re: mysis or brine shrimp

Anemonefishes are omnivores and expect no less than 30% of their diet to be vegetables. You might get some info from here: Fish Health Through Proper Nutrition.

Neither BS or Mysis are appropriate staple foods for any marine fish. Only brine shrimp that are gut loaded with vitamins, fats, and/or spirulina should be fed and then, no more than 20% of the feedings. Part of that same 20% can be Mysis (Mysids) if they are of freshwater origin. Mysis (Mysids) of saltwater origin may be fed up to 30% of the fish feeding.

Good luck!
