BELLO - Bottomfeeder Jello!

[EOD]

Was browsing different recipes for Snello and decided to make some that everyone in the tank would enjoy and it worked quite well!
Recipe:
2 packages clear jello
1 jar baby food (peas)
1 tablespoon fish flakes
1 cube frozen blood worms
2 Tums (calcium)
1 tablespoon honey

You would not believe how crazy they go over this BELLO - Bottomfeeder Jello
Because you wouldn't believe it I made a nice little video to the tune of Fat Bottom Girls by Queen

The video will take quite a while to upload so I'm going to post it when it's done.

Awesome! I might try making this tomorrow.. Oh and BTW, what video editing site/software did you use?

 

[EOD]

I've used many movie editors but when it comes to simple stuff like this I stick to windows movie maker.

 

[reefdiver]

that is very nice. what kind of species is the green lookin loach?

 

[platytudes]

Awesome! I wonder what the honey does? Is that your secret ingredient?

 

[rainbowcharmer]

Very cool. How do you feed it? Just drop it in? How do you prevent all the "top dwellers" from getting it before the loaches/cories do? My top dwellers are ALL pigs, and the cories are so much slower than the tetras/angel/severum. The sinking wafers don't seem to tempt the top guys so much, but looks like this jello would.

The jello is lightly mixed so as to not put air bubbles in it, making it float. Jello naturally sinks, especially when you add worms, flakes, baby food. I pour it into a tupperware and cut it into cubes to feed. I fed some to the tank upstairs and the convicts and the tiger barbs nip at it as well. (My tiger barbs eat so ferociously, bottom dwellers usually miss out on most food) The corydoras still got bites at it because the food takes so long to consume, the tigers get bored of nipping at it after a while

How big of a cube do you put in at a time? Something similar in size to the frozen food cubes that they sell at the fish stores?

 

[EOD]

No, about double the size of those blood worm cubes actually. It doesn't start breaking down very quickly so it almost like a 2 day feeder block like you can get at the stores...except better and home made.
