Ok think i can answer this better now doing my homework

ALL New era products are cold pressure extruded, the products are bound by high pressure (NOT HEAT), there is also a high algal content which forms a starch bonding agent that is rich in nutrition.

The diet breaks down readily for easy consumption as you cna see in the video but does not fall apart.

Put enough in for one feed at a time.

Excellent! Can't wait to try it out.

PS - awesome fish in the video!

PPS - Thanks for the quick email reply! The ingredients look good! I think they are adding extra starch to the mix, though I don't see that being any trouble.

No not at all what they dont eat as with all grazing food you can take out, but believe me my single Tang can eat a whole lump to himself.

Look at the feeding video there is nothing breaking up and polluting.

Hey all, we have these New Era feeding blocks in stock and have cut them into 50g, 100g, 150g, 200g nd 250g chunks. The tangs LOVE it.
But the suction mounting plug is genius!!!! Can't wait till we have those in stock.
Cheers Ronnie
