anemone feeding tool
-ok my tank depth is such that I really don't like reaching all the way in to feed shrimp pieces to my bubble tips
-of course I know not to use something sharp that could injure my anemones -I have gripper style hand held unit but my fear is that I end up with some type of bacteria in the tong ends and then introduce it to the anemones -what do you guys/gals use?

I generally use tubing zip tied on a long plastic dowel, with a large feeding syringe for target feeding. for extra large chunks like whole shrimp/krill I just use tongs. with your tank being deep the gripper wand is great for that.
