    Default No better time to be in an aquarium than now!

    Was just looking at my food stash in the fridge/freezer and WOW -I think there's never been a better time to be a fish or coral in my house than now.
    Ten years ago my first pair of clowns only got boring marine flakes.
    Now I have so many goodies, especially for the filter feeders.

    The Mandarins enjoy frozen Prawn Eggs (Ova by Nutramar) and Bloodworms (by Hikari)

    The Anthias like their frozen Mysis (by Hikari)

    The Filter feeders get different types of liquid phyto including Tahitian Blend (BSD) and Phycopure (by Algagen) and also oyster eggs by H20 Life which come conveniently in cubes - less freezer burn prone than the DT's oyster eggs. Another coral mix contains a delicious mix of Rotifers, Cyclops copepods ,Moina and Phytoplankton (Spirulina, Isochrysis and Nanochloropsis) -all in a convenient frozen cube.

    Fun times for people like me that like to feed things! Used to be so inconvenient to find different stuff and now everything is available in frozen cubes.
    Love it

    I am trying to talk my family into getting a chest freezer for the people food so they stop cluttering up my fish food section on the freezer side in our fridge...

    Kristy,
    everybody likes this one:

    but the plain oyster eggs are popular too:

    I bought both mostly for the corals and filter feeders but the fish, especially the anthias, really go after it too. Then again anthias are such pigs - can't think of anything they don't like...
