What Is Your Dry Food Recipe?

[gemini aquarius(t)]

I am trying to formulate an efficient dry food recipe for my 50 gallon tank.
I would like to know:
What foods
How much of each
How often
How big your tank is


I hope this will turn into a mini-database of recipes for people to copy, and experiment from.

No one feeds dry?

Mine but I have started to freeze them as it is getting troublesome..
My tank is 135g.

Daily
FM Seafan System
-Ultra SeaFan - 1g
-Ultra Min F - 1g
-Ultra Clam - 1g
-Ultra Min D - 1g
-Ultra Life - 1g

Reef Pearl - 2g

Shellfish Diet - 10ml

TLF Zooplan - 2g
TLF Phytoplan - 1g

5 cubes of Rotifers
5 cubes of cyclopeeze

For my gorgonians, spirals and terrazoanthids:

FM:
Ultra Min F
Ultra Sea Fan
Ultra Clam
Zoa Powder
All in equal proportion. I seldom feed just dry to those corals. I add finely ground homemade mix, Cyclopeeze, NutraMar Ova, Brine Artemia, Reef Plankton and Oyster Feast. I enrich that with Selcon and VitaChem and spot feed daily. I'm converting an old kalk reactor into an auto feeder that will be used once I've moved them into the new tank (115 gallon).and the new sump (375 gallons) is connected. I call this mix The Tank Crasher. Throw it in a normal reef, and watch it crash!

My suns and dendros, I feed.FM LPS Pellets every 3rd night. All I do with those is occasionally soak in Oyster Feast, beforehand. The other nights, I feed a variety of frozen products

How are you measuring the weight of the foods?
Sounds like a good mix

I am trying to slowly build up the feedings, until I know what the tank can handle. I might have to step up some part of the filtration though since I am noticing a good amount of algae growth in the tank

Just use those kitchen measuring spoons..
