Hello just quick one. I think I know the answer but just want to check.
Just nipped up tesco to get some prawns for the puffers and they had a bag of frozen mussels for quite cheap. Only problem is they contain garlic oil. Obviously I know garlic is beneficial but the oil? Mega water issues and/or fish issues?
Words of wisdom?
 
You must rinse the mussels with fairly tap water, the rinse have to do until oil desappear, it is less dense than water "emulsion" and it can prevent the correct oxigenation of tank water.
 
^^ what he said, oil will mess up your tank water really quick
 
No idea about the garlic mussels, but just had to say how much I miss Tesco......do they still make their own donuts, that was our breakfast treat when I worked in Rugby?

message to Tesco management - "come to SC, you'll blow the competition out of the water!"
