 silversides so i went to my lfs today and got some frozen silversides for my lionfish. the thing is, is that the ss are like 4 inches long. that is longer than my lion is, so my question is: should i cut the silversides in half?

| Re: silversides I would cut them in half. Unless you could take them back and get smaller ones.

| Re: silversides these were the only size they had. and i tried to cut them up and i put some fishing line from their mouth to their gill. i plopped it in the tank, but the lionfish onmly looked at it, i was wiggling it around, i bet its not hungry since i just fed him 3 rosyreds yesterday.

| Re: silversides Just cut the silverside to a size he can enjoy it at, be sure to thaw it out and soak it in some garlic and vitamins for the guy, a good 30 mins soak is nice.. Anemones LOVE 1/4" pieces of silversides too !!! |
