Ocean Nutrition Feeding Prong

Experience the excitement of feeding predatory aquarium species up close with the Ocean Nutrition Feeding Prong. Specially crafted for target-feeding larger carnivores and sensitive invertebrates, this feeding stick allows you to present frozen prey in a lively, natural motion while keeping your hands safely out of the water.

Constructed from high-grade clear acrylic, the prong becomes nearly invisible under water. This stealthy appearance prevents fish from being spooked, making it an indispensable tool for weaning wild-caught predators off live food and transitioning them to prepared frozen diets.

Key Features & Benefits

• Interactive Feeding Experience: Enjoy close-up views of natural predatory hunting behaviors as your fish strike the presented prey.

• Virtually Invisible Underwater: Clear acrylic construction blends seamlessly into the water column to prevent startling timid or wild-caught species.

• Ideal Weaning Tool: Gently wiggling skewered frozen food mimics live movement, effectively training predatory fish to accept non-living foods.

• Hand Safety & Water Cleanliness: Keeps your hands dry and protected from venomous spines, aggressive bites, or pinching claws while avoiding skin oil contamination in the tank.

• Versatile Compatibility: Perfect for holding larger frozen foods like lancefish, Krill Superba, whole mussels, cockles, silversides, and white shrimp.

Suitable For

• Marine Predatory Fish: Lionfish, Groupers, Eels, Anglers/Frogfish, Puffers, Triggers, and Snappers

• Freshwater Predatory Fish: Oscars, Birchirs, Datnoids, Pikes, Large Catfish, and Freshwater Eels

• Invertebrates: Large Sea Anemones, Crabs, Lobsters, Mantis Shrimp, and Starfish

How to Use

1. Skewer a piece of thawed frozen prey (such as Krill Superba or lancefish) onto the tip of the prong.

2. Submerge the prong into the aquarium near your target fish or invertebrate.

3. Gently wiggle or move the prong through the water column to simulate live motion and trigger a natural strike response.

4. Once the animal grabs the prey, release your hold and allow them to swallow the food.

5. Rinse the prong with freshwater after each use and store in a clean place.
