I think its the only cubes J&L sells. I believe its Sally's San Francisco Bay Brand....I just looked in the freezer and I am down to the last pack so the cover was tossed.

Ok, so what color is it and whats inside, like a frozen paste or chunks?
Thanks so much i will pick it up next time i am there.

But i think they sell more then one kind, i have 3 kinds in my freezer... what do you do? just drop the cube in or suspend in the feeding plastic net?

Is this the right stuff?

Give the arctic pods a try for the CBB. They sell them at OA and so far everything eats it in my tanks.

Day 8 and still not eating! The CBB is thin but does not appear stressed. It is adapting to the new tank. It occas picks at the liverock but I don't think it is eating anything. All the aiptasia is still present. It didn't touch the clams in the 1/2 shell. I have tried 3 brands of mysis shrimp and two brands of brine shrimp also without success. I will keep trying.
