Canreef Aquatics Bulletin Board - Making your own food in photos.

Yesterday I made a huge batch of homemade fishfood, and I documented the process, so I thought i would share it;

Here is the process for making the food. It contains the following; Mysis, Nori (All colors), Oyster Eggs, Garlic (crushed), Scallops, Vitamins (selcon and zoe), Squid, Krill, Spirulina flakes, Rotifers, Brine Shrimp, Cyclop-eeze, Silversides, Cuddlefish, Shrimp.

First I defrosted the frozen goods in RO/DI. I spent two hours thawing and rinsing them until the water ran semi-clear.

Next up I peeled garlic, and lots of it. FYI this much garlic was required to make 35 cups of product.

All mixed together, it was very thick, and hard on the arms

My favorite tool of the day, yay for the ugly 1970s relic which has kept most of the smell from clinging into my house.

My fish seem quite happy with it so far.
