Alright, as I fall ever so out of control into other critters I hadn't planned on, I'm trying to figure out what some of my more economical options are.
For some of my stuff there is no way around the formulated small stuff for feeding LPS and fish foods. But I have some hardy critters which are more than happy to eat table shrimp and the like. But seeing as table shrimp is meant for people I'm not sure if it's actually the cheaper option.
So any ideas on what the cheaper source for "meaty" seafoods would be for my Mantis/Bristle&Serpect stars/etc would be? I kinda wondered about finding an asian market down in denver and buying live or frozen on the cheap there. Maybe stuff I'd be more scared of eating myself but are fine for the beasties. Or is there silversides or similiar that can be bought somewhat more economically than the $12+ frozen trays of other stuff.
