Am I wrong for doing this? Nothing wasted/floating around + I'm having fun. I only do it very seldom. Just an idea. The shrimp love to come and get hand fed - even the very shy fire shrimp come flying out of hiding.
Thank you so much for the compliment, photography is another passion of mine, just slightly above the saltwater tank, or, actually maybe it's a tie... anyways, someone told me about how to post the big pics. Just copy the IMG of the picture and paste it right onto your reply. I always upload the pics onto photobucket.com and then paste them from there to here.

That's a very cool way to feed fish and inverts I think! I have a turkey baster I try doing that with, my clown has no fear of it and starts biting the tip of it before I can squirt anything out! I'm going to try to find my sea star tonight to feed it a piece of frozen shrimp, that would be cool if he'd take it from my hand...
