Each individual organism in our tank I'm sure has a VASTLY different diet than what we provide for them but they still seem to survive in our systems. Red meat does have a vast amount of different protiens and enzymes in it though, so introducing it to a reef system could cause some problems.

Changing the state of the foods doesnt change the nutrient combinations found in the food. yes, through heating/freezing some of the amino acids which make up the proteins in the meats will break down/change, but they dont turn into entirely different molecular chains. If we are feeding bits and pieces of animals from their natural environment, they are still getting a more correct mix of nutrients. Just playing devil's advocate right back
