i make mine in a bit smaller batches and freeze it in the little trays i kept from some commercially frozen product. 1 clam, 3 or 4 small bay scallops, 1 prawn, 2 or 3 shrimp, a whole lot of okanagan lake mysis shrimp, and 1 small squid. I chop this up with a clove of garlic really fine and freeze it. When it is time to feed i break off a cube and soak it in salt water from my tank. I add some flake saved from the bottom of last can, with some spray freeze dried plankton ( I swear by this stuff) available at wai's in calgary, and some selcon. stir it all up and feed with a turkey baster lightly puffing it over all my corals etc. everything in the tank opens up when i feed, including a wierd christmas tree coral (that was the name i got when i bought it- it looks like a xmas tree shaped acropora but it is quite soft) that only opens at night and when i feed this stuff.
