is aqua dine good to feed?
someone told me i should feed mysis once a week, and aqua dine the other 6 days,
they said all the meaty protein would be bad for my corals, even though i have a working protein skimmer.
i tried giving my fish some aqua dine but it just sinks fast and besides that none of my fish took it /:<

Not to state the obvious but... if your fish aren't eating it, don't waste your money. Just saying.

Find something your fish love. It can be hit or miss.

I feed mysis shrimp daily and I have all types of corals(sps, lpl, softies, and a clam). I've never heard of aqua dine. Is it a pellet food?

This is very true. I've recently got a pygmy angel and trying to figure out what it likes best.

Aquadine is a "duraflake." Its what other brands call a crisp. It's kind of like multiple flakes pressed together. It's the shape of a contact lense, so it will drift as it slowly sinks. Some fish love it, some don't, like with any food.

There are pre-packaged varieties, and you can also custom blend your own to match your tank's needs.

All my fish loved it, and some of the corals reached out for it as well. I don't have any picky eaters in my tank, they're well fed and willing to try new stuff I throw at them.
