I just got back into the office this morning so sorry for the tardy replies.

Thanks for the positive feedback Dustin, Rich and Jess.

It helps me keep consistent at feeding time !!!
Yes, I made a couple cube trays of the coral food to try out.
Part of the reason that the plankton is so nutritious is that it is not thawed, rinsed and water added to make it into a cube tray. The plankton presently comes in 4oz, 8oz and 16oz flat packs. The coral food comes in a flat pack about a 1/4" thick.

Thanks Mindy. I will be sure to look up Green Lipped Mussels and their nutritional profile. I had put the algae in to feed Tridacna clams and other molluscs. This means that the food is not just for corals so perhaps a slight name change is needed.
