Best pellet food?
 
I have fed a variety of pellet foods, but not sure which is the most nutritious or healthiest for my fish. I don't just trust ingredient labels. Also, which pellet foods are OK to feed corals, like Sun Corals and Dendros?

Considering all my costs, food is probably near the bottom. So I might as well try to get the best for my livestock.

What do you use, and why?

I have always liked Ocean Nutrition Formula One Marine pellets. All my fish, including mandarins, have eaten them and any corals I have had that ate something.

I used Formula One for a long time too. Red Coral was the only place in town that I knew of that carried it for some reason. When I ran out I switched to NLS (New Life Spectrum) marine pellets. My fish seem to like them just the same.
