I am going to be making two different blends one for the coral at night one for the fish during the day.
Fish will have
Shrimp, Scallop,Squid,Brine, Krill, Mysis,Nori,carrot,BBS. Salmon(?) Arctipods

I will finish this in the ayer

 

[ksanmamaril]

wow how does your coral and fish like it?

 

[yellowslayer13]

My fish love it, but if I screw the proportions up they will not go near it. I have a CLASSIFIED proportion table that I am still working on perfecting.

[Aquafrags]

sounds like good stuff, isnt a lot of work to make

 

[Reefer08]

lol that is a lot of work. Rods food is great stuff but is expensive.

 

[dc_909]

it's easy, throw it in a food processor and freeze.

 

[yellowslayer13]

It took about 10 min for about 5 pounds of food. Enough for about 3 months.

 

[MechaSamurai]

Any ideas on breaking it up? I feed PEMysis shrimp that come in a big sheet and its something of a pain to break it up into small portions.

*edit*I'm assuming that this is frozen, if not what does it smell like after 3 months?

Bump, anyone else do this? I am almost out of fish food. Thinking about doing this instead of buying it.

 

[reefsUP]

I just mix coral food and fish frozen food cube that works for me

i also make my own fish and coral food. costs about $60 total but lasts 1 year. my fish and coral love it, i call it "reef crack". i gave some to try to a couple of reefers and they all agreed, reef crack is the way to go.

 

[Pure Magic79]

Recipe Please?
