Title says it all. I got some Selcon to boost the nutrition of my fish food and I am wondering how you guys store it. While your here feel free to share your experience with this additive and recommendations on frequency of use.
 
Pretty mixed so far! I'm considering soaking Nori and flake food in it as well as my frozen.
 
Yes, I do. I keep all my foods in the freezer also, yes even the dry.
 
So what I had to do was my fish(which are in qt) would not eat the food with selcone on it right away especially my Kole tang with nori as I guess it was new so I had to slowly add it to there food to trick them
one drop for the week in garlic for the week then each week I slowly added more selcone now they eat it all up
 
I refrigerate mine to keep fresh.
 
maybe its like juice, once you refrigerate it you should keep it that way? i purchased mine from my las and they had it in their fridge so i keep mine cold. but if it aint broke don't fix it lol
 
I've been using it well over 15yrs I've always refrigerated it. Man...could of sworn the bottle use to say refrigerate after opening.
 
Hum after reading mine it doesn't say what to do
 
None of my LFS sell it (I have to order it from petsolutions.com) because they say it always goes bad. I attributed that to the lack of refrigeration on the shelf. Yes, I refrigerate it
 
I do not
 
I wonder how well the selcon or supplements adhere to frozen foods. I tried pellets soaked and my fish refused to eat it.
Also I refrigerate my supplements once opened. I feel colder temps slow down any chemical changes.
 
I refrigerated previous bottles but the one I am using now is room temp. I feel when you shake it to mix the fatty acids with the aqueous vitamin it mixes easier. I use it with nori, the plant matter seems to soak it up better than other foods. 2 4x4 sheets nori with 10 drops every 2-3 days.
