I have a 10 gal mini reef, just started, all that is in the tank is a small rock of zoos, a few frags of polps, 1 green mushroom and a lawnmower blenny and a boxer crab. Also some hermit crabs and 1 turbo snail and 10 pounds of live rock. So the question is how often do I feed the tank frozen brine shrimp I was thinking about once a week will this work or do I need to feed more or less.
Thanks
 
I think your blenny might appreciate algae more than shrimp: you can get it dried: algae is their specialty. You have more algae eaters in that crew than you have carnivores, though I don't know about the crab. He might not turn down the shrimp.
 
Keener - is your lawnmower eating the brine shrimp?
 
no the lawn mower is not eating the brine shrimp, one of the live rocks I got had some alge on it so he has been picking that apart. my hermit crabs are eating brine shrimp as well as some of the inhabitents of the live rock. What do I need to feed the corals or will everything pretty much feed its self?
