Ocean Aquatics sells it I think. I got some from there last year. Lots of large meaty chunks as well as little "floaty bits" for smaller fish and corals. My corals certainly love it. I found that I had to add mysis to it as my larger fish would charge around eating it all up too quickly while the smaller fish weren't left with much or couldn't eat any of the larger stuff (mouths were too small for it).

Good to know! I will have to drop in there to pick some up! So you are happy with the food overall?

Thanks!

Ian

we had some shipped for a group order, and everyone loved it. my whole tank goes nuts for it, one of the funny things is seeing little broccoli buds floating around, but even they get eaten up(usually my tang) i find it easiest to feed from a clear turkey baster so you can see where the largest chunks are and then i try and get those to my duncan or dendro colonies. if i could buy it locally i would for sure, they have a coral food aswell but i have only seen it while i was in michigan at a reef store, this year when i go back im stocing up on it!!!!!

By the sounds of it I need to get some of this food! When was the group order, should we start another one?

Anyone else into a group order of this food?
