I see these pellets are suppose to be very low on phosphate. I would be interested in trying them in 1 of my autofeeders but its unclear if the pellets are coral specific or if they are ok to feed to fish? I know they have powder and an LPS version but I am interested in if they are decent for fish.

Fairly expensive though.

The manufacturer said they more of a coral, zooplankton and microbe feed, fish could possibly eat them also although it doesn’t mention if them alone would be enough for their diet requirements.

I have used them to feed my Trachy corals. They love them.

Trust me, my hippotangs will try and peck them away from the trachys soon after feeding them.
