If you feed this to your fish, what's your impression?

Where do you buy it?

How do youe feed it?

Hi Larry,

I think mysis relicta is a great food for Discus. I feed them to my adult and juvenile discus everyday and they really seem to enjoy it. It may take a little getting used to at first.

There are several sources for mysis relicta (freshwater type); Piscine Energetics (sells direct with a minimum order of 20 lbs), Jehmco (also sells in blocks of 5-10 lbs) and Walter at Bioaquatic foods (sells them in 8 oz and 16 oz flats). Make sure you rinse them in cold water before feeding.

HTH, Lester ;)

Jehmco is where I got mine.
rinse in cold water and you will be fine.

Feeding them before a water change would be the best.
Because mysis are quite a mess.
