I like fish roe as well. I'm fortunate to live near the ocean & I fish also. i collect roe while preparing my catch for dinner.

I alternate phytofeast and oysterfeast followed by reef energy B. My understanding is that reef energy A is suspended organics and B is aminos and vitamins so I felt reef energy A would add pretty much same thing the phyto and oysterfeast are adding so I opt for just the B as ive had the best growth and color from phyto. Kept a sea Apple for 5 years and fed him phyto daily and my corals never looked better or grew more. As far as alternating the phyto and oysterfeast rather than phyto daily I simply figured a more varied diet would be better for the corals. Have not really formed a solid opinion yet as to the accuracy of that statement.

I started K-Z Amino Acids about two weeks ago and I think I'm actually noticing a difference... possibly the best snake oil I've used

Fuel and Reef Energy are about the same, but I've heard Reef Energy is better for one reason. Apparently carbs and fat (or two of something else in these supplements) sort of counteract each other, and lower the products efficiency in its intended purpose. That's why Reef Energy is separated into 2 parts.

I've used both (currently on Fuel) but I think I'll go back to Reef Energy once Fuel runs out.

I also feed Reef Roids (target fed to lessen waste and in conjunction with polyp booster), and Mysis shrimp for inhabitants. If it's pertinent, this is a 12-gallon softie and LPS tank with an AI Prime HD fixture.

I use Elos Aminos and haven't really seen any noticeable difference since I started using them.

Ill feed the Cyclopoids first in a slight excess so they really float around good for that first day and allow the corals to eat somewhat naturally. Mysis in the middle of the week to keep excess nutrients low. and finally ill end with some high-nutrient pellets the day before my water change so anything that might not get eaten doesn't become a problem later on.

I haven't really enjoyed using any type of "Coral Foods" and I tried a few..
