My pirana's lived on salmon guts.. but i'm sure it wasn't too healthy. There's DIY fish food that uses raw fish, so i'm assuming reef safe.

depends on where you get it from too, apperntly some storebought fish is sprayed with phopahtes as a preservative.

give it a good wash and feed.
I wash and mix clams,baby shrimp,baby octopus,mussels,squid,real crab meat and some nori.Place it all in a container and grind it all separate it in small ball size and IQF in the freezer in a ziplock bag and voila all fish love it so is my corals
