The process has started, the food is thawing in RO/DI right now. Its stinky!

Okay bags will be 3/8" thick and will contain at least 1 cup of food per bag. They are ziplock freezer bags, however I would advise double bagging them once you get them home to further prevent freezer burn. :D

I will post here when food is ready and available for pick up. Probably late this afternoon. If you want to come get your food before its frozen, e.g. you want to make your own cubes, let me know and I will keep it in the fridge.

- Misc. mix, which I'm hoping to buy
- Marine Sponge
- Vitamins (leaning owards selcon and vita-chem)
- squid (I have a package to contribute)
- Krill
- cylop-eeze
- pellet food?
- Spirulina flakes/powder?
- ocean plankton (I'm going to put some in my mix, but I can edit it out of others)
- enriched rotifers
- spirulina enriched brine shrimp
- cyclop-eeze
- silversides or smelt with heads and tails removed
- phytoplankton (anyone thinking this would cause excess pollution without being of any benefit?)

Food is all washed, and almost ready for its trip to the blender! I am so glad I soaked this stuff for an extra long time, the color of the rinced water was just disgusting. I can also only taste and smell garlic....
