Do you feed ocean plankton, as in the stuff that looks similar to mysis?
I'll make some ice cube samples tonight and post a photo, at least then I can get an idea of what sizes work. I can also just freeze the food into thin sheets in ziplock bags as well.
I have probably 5 different possible recipes of food, and what I've done is I've made a list of all their ingrediants. Most likely what I will do is made a trip to the asian market, see what is available for seafoods and at what prices. Most likely for me it will be price that decides what will be in the mix.
These are the ingrediants I am seeing;
- mysis
- blood worms
- krill
- squid
- ocean plankton
- enriched rotifers
- spirulina enriched brine shrimp
- cocktail type shrimp
- octopus
- cyclop-eeze
- spirulina (powder, flake, and pellet varieties)
- silversides
- smelt
- nori (green, purple, red/brown, and in flakes, stripes, and shredded)
- phytoplankton (I'm iffy on this because of potential pollution)
- garlic (Kent's garlic extreme, crushed garlic cloves, and liquid garlic)
- scallops
- selcon
- vita-chem
- zoecon
I want to make sure if we choose to use garlic that it includes allicin, the active ingrediant. I also don't know much about selcon, vita-chem, or zoecon. I'm doing my best to research them. Are there better vitamin type products, or something else worth putting in the mix?
