      For the nem try silverside pieces the size of a pencil eraser.

      For the clowns try prawn eggs or cyclops, they love that stuff.

      I use thawed frozen silversides for my LTA sometimes thawed frozen shrimp from supermarket.

      My Ocellaris eat Prime Reef flakes, Formula 2 flakes, frozen spirulina mysis, a little garlic gaurd might help. They didnt eat for a while when I got them either. The orange ora pellets didnt work. frozen mini mysis worked.
