i just drop the bag or hit it against something and pick out a pinch, frozen food can be pain to get out though, I'll give it that. i have a little plastic dish just for that, i fill the dish 1/3 with tank water throw the block in, stir and feed asap. justins definitely right about how fast frozen food spoils, absolutely putrid after an hour or two-

so what is the proper way of doing homemade mix's, i have thawed packs of mysis so that i can add in lipo-vit and immuneo-vit into the frozen food then refreeze it? This is not the 1st time that i have done this, as well the food is only thawed for 20-30 min tops. OR should i be adding it to the food as i need it?

i know that a lot of people rethaw frozen stuff when they make a food mix but it's not a method i would comfortably employ myself. If i were to make a mix, i would not include the protein rich meaty food in the mix and just feed it separately. or just mix it into the daily feed before each feeding.
