[Killietalk] Properly thawing frozen foods

["bgorton1" <bgorton1 at rochester_rr.com>]

Hi all- a quick question......

Is there a "proper" way to thaw frozen foods in preparation for feeding?????  I thought that I read somewhere that if you thaw it in water that is too hot to begin with that you leach nutrients out of the food, and that it was best to use lukewarm water (obviously takes a while longer!)......thoughts?????

BTW- I've started using Hikari frozen brine shrimp and blood worms (enriched with vitamins) and my killies go absolutely nuts over them...
