to frozen food or not to frozen food....

[Ruth]

I feed mostly a concoction of frozen. I buy the frozen variety or chowder pack at Safeway (it has clams, mussels, squid, shrimp, scallops etc.). Into this I add frozen cyclopeeze, spirilina flakes, garlic, selcon, whatever other frozen seafood I might have in my freezer, some NSL pellets and some ON pellets and flakes. I blend this all up using some tank water so it is blendable and then freeze it flat in freezer bags and when I feed I just break off a piece and thaw it in some tank water and feed immediately. Every once in a while I will just feed flake and when I am out of town or on holiday I get whoever will be feeding my fish to just feed flake as it is easier to show them how much to feed.
