    I don't care much for pellet and flakes. Why bother with those fillers?
    Frozen prawn eggs and oyster eggs are popular here. Freeze dried cyclopeez as well as the frozen variety is also well received. (Texas Tropical sells the frozen cyclopeez in a convenient freezer bar)
    Algae paste for the oysters.

    I like spectrum. Pellets are small and sink fast so you need to shut off pumps or have enough current to keeping them moving around.

    You still have the oyster from the online order a while back? (was it GC reef?)

    If you're looking for variety, get some Rod's food. I couldn't believe how much better my fish looked after feeding it for a few weeks. There's a little bit of everything in it and everything (including coral) respond well.
