So who's using this stuff to feed their tanks? The freeze dried stuff.

Frankly ... I kind of can't stand it. Seems that about 95% of it just floats and won't sink (even if presoaked for a few minutes). So naturally most of it just ends up down my overflow. The only animals that go up to the surface to eat it are my shrimp, and let's face it, those little needle legs/appendages are more adept at grasping objects rather than filtering.

What little bit sinks, the fish seem to enjoy, but ultimately I think I have to question whether the amount that ends up wasted is worth the little bit the fish get.

I haven't tried presoaking the stuff for a matter of a few hours prior to feeding time. Think that this would be worth a shot maybe?

How are people using this stuff?
