PlSCATORiAL APPETITES.
Curious Foods of the Fishes in the Now
York City Aquarium.

Curious Foods of the Fishes in the Now
York City Aquarium.
The work of providing suitable food
for the many varieties of foreign and
domestic fish in sthc New York CITY
aquarium makes very curious and in
tercsting study. The food provided is
as nearly as possible like the food the
fish cats in his natural free state. The
hsh are led once day at regular
hour. The live food is placed in the
tanks and is soon captured by the fish,
and the dead food is thrown into the
pools as required and the part not
used is afterward taken out to keep
the pool clean. 1t was found neces-
sary to have as much variety as posi-
BILE in fish foods, since the fish are very
fastidious in their diet and often re-
fuse to eat the food offered them.
The live food consists of clans.
shrimp, killies, crabs and n variety of
small fish. CLANS are used in large
quantities, being cut up in sizes to suit
the fish. For sharks and such large
fish live menhaden are placed in the
pool. The skate and the dog fish eat
large snails, the striped bass are fed
on soft crabs. The smaller fish require
especially prepared fish. If clans are
fed to them for instance, they have to
be cut up into mince meat or else care.
fully scraped. The sea anemone. for
instance, are fed on crabs and the soft
parts of oysters, and it is necessary to
place these particles of food on forks
to place them within the ,anemone's
reach. The sea horses are especially
delicate feeders, and great care is taken
in preparing their food. A minute
crustacean is sometimes put in their
tanks. Shrimps are also used at times
for this purpose. They must be per-
fectly fresh, however, and be served
with the greatest care to make it re-
semble the sea horses natural food.
The barnacles are provided with
net in which they move through the
water to secure their food, and are also
very particular in their fare. The
juice Of clans or oysters is usually fed
to them by dropping it into water di-
rectly above them. The barnacles sub
sist on the fibers of the mollusk. The
smaller cruStaceans are fed with very
small pieces of young hermit crabs,
snails, Holsters, etc. The coral polyps
and other very small varieties are fed
in similar way. Great care is always
exercised to provide the best quality of
food and to vary it, SO as to make it ap-
petizing to the fish. The work of feed
ing and the antics Of the fish while eat
ing are well worth watching. The
feeding hour is indeed by far the most
interesting part of the day in the great
aquarium. Scientific American.
