I feed Ocean Nutrition pellets and frozen mysis and enriched brine, both soaked in selcon.

Nori for the tangs and that is about it.

 

[jeffbrig]

I make my own as well. Garlic, selcon, nori, PE mysis, cyclopeeze, and whatever fresh fish/shrimp/squid/etc. I can get my hands on.

i just picked up some rods fish food. stuff is great!

but the ingredients are basically everything people have been using as their own food as it is, with afew extras.

Ingredients: Shrimp, Scallop, Oyster, Clam, Squid, Octopus, Brine, Krill, Mysis, Grouper (or perch), Red Nori, green Nori, Broccoli, carrot, Frozen red plankton, Golden pearl (7 sizes), DTs Oyster eggs, Selco, Fresh hatched brine, and Freshly harvested rotifers.


it says all the ingredients are already throughly rinsed, so you can add it directly, instead of alot of foods with so much excess nutrients.

I feed my home made food once a day but I also have an automatic feeder that dispenses very little portions of pellet food 4 times a day, I have a mix of Sera's Granumarin plus, tetra micrcrabs and ORAglo.

Thanks Guys on the menu

I heard that someone cooked the seafood before chopping it. Why would they do that?

 

[Bret61081]

My fish get Spectrum Thera A 4 times a day from the auto feeder and then I feed Rods Food, PE mysis and Artic Pods every few days. Needless to say my fish are FAT! =)

 

[ghstrider]

Rogger, where did you get the ORAglo?? Ive read about it here and there and would like to try it. Is it pellets or flakes or?

BTW Bret... i saw the tank pics in your gallery and they look sweet. Can you post an updated pic?

 

[ReefWreak]

I feed Spectrum pellets and PE Mysis cubes and nori from the supermarket.

 

[gasman059]

spectrum/flakes once in a while and PE plus democrats mix

 

[pedromatic]

Once or twice a day I feed a mixture of PE Mysis, frozen brine shrimp, clams, squid, Prime Reef, Rod's with some garlic and VitaChem mixed in.

I just recently added an Eheim auto feeder that I stock with Tetra MiniKrill (a big hit with Antheas) and MicroCrabs, Spectrum, Hikari Marine A and S. The auto feeder dispenses small amounts twice a day while I'm at work. Since adding the feeder I've cut back on the frozen stuff a bit.

A couple of times a week I feed frozen krill or pieces of silversides to anemones and more aggressive fishies (wrasses, trigger, hawkfish).

 

[NanoKat]

I think I heard that Eco Reef has the ORA Glow food.

I feed spectrum flake from the auto feeder twice daily, then some Cyclopeze every other day or so, then frozen Mysis soaked with Selcon and sometimes garlic about once or twice a week.
