Ocean Nutrition Pellets
 
Anyone feed either of these.

My fish don't seem to be interested in them at all... :frown:
I am curious if anyone else has more success with them.

I have the formula 2 pellets. They are fairly large and they sink right away. I have better success with the formula 1 and 2 flakes, also I have smaller pellets which float in the water a bit better before sinking, I think they are nutrafin, my fish like them better.

IMO the formula 2 pellets might be better for large size fish.

TomR was generous enough to give me some Form. One sm. pellets & my fish gobble them up like candy. But then again, I raise sw pigs, not fish :eating:

All my fish love them.

Moo is a bottom feeder and she'll gobble them. The others don't seem to bother.

My fish are still confused about the whole pellet thing. "Whats this lump? Gimme some flake!" :biggrin:

I'm still tryin though. My midas blenny sometimes recognizes the formula 1 but the formula 2 just looks like all the other algae floaters in the tank and the fish ignore it :razz:

I used it on my fish only tank and the tangs loved it. They were very healthy and their color was great.

I feed formula 1 pellets and my fish, shrimp and crabs love them as well as my anemone.

My fish won't touch the formula 1 pellets I had. I ended up giving them away (the pellets, not the fish :mrgreen: ).

Also, I found that my anemones really didn't like them either. If it would accidentally injest on of the pellets, it would promply expell its stomach contents shortly after.
