Hi Liz,

I take it that this means that cyclop-eeze is a prepared fish food? :)

They probably sell it in the same store that you buy Yamato Shrimp from
:) Are these a freshwater animal?

Not sure we see much of either 'round here - hence the Australian
readers of Chris' original post probably just thought he couldn't spell
Cyclops :)

I could have this wrong, living out in the sticks now such as I am.

Cheers, Andrew
