Okay! Will order the large. I had gotten the small but wow it really is smallThey just ate the pellets again. PE pellets they hated. I have the Ultra Fresh in a Eheim feeder. I was looking a Avast feeders this morning but I really don't want to spend that much on it.

The eheim is the best . It’s more reliable

I been using this for years when on vacation. Cheap and reliable. I set up a WiFi camera turn off all pumps and skimmers remotely feed. Watch tank then turn on all pumps after 10 to 20 minutes. Works great and if it breaks I’ll get a new one. https://a.co/d/4Des31X

Did someone call for some smoldering?

I usually prefer the smaller food - fish will always eat smaller pellets but not always larger ones. Plus, in an auto feeder, the smaller pellets tend to be more controllable and less likely to jam in my experience.

I use the digital version of this same feeder. Very reliable, easy to refill.

That sounds like a long overdue vacation!
I have a mix of hikari seaweed extreme (for the tangs and blenny) and new life spectrum (regular pellet, 1mm - 1.5mm). they are pretty close in size and dispense well from my ehiem feeder. I have tried piscine pellets too, about the same experience you had. Reef nutrition pellets were good, the fish liked them too, but long term were pretty heavy in the phosphates. I also tried the hikari carnivore pellets. The new life spectrum had the best balance of fish palatability, water pollution, and availability so far that i have found.

^^^ this. All the fish will eat small pellets, but only bigger fish can handle the big pellets, and what they don't eat the crabs and CUC have an easier time with. Spot on with controlability and less likely to jam too.
Glad the ultra fresh is working out, i will have to check into that! and fauna marin stuff too.

Good morning 
How is the weather in Palm Coast? It's rainy and in the 50s here in NJ. Weather has changed drastically since I was a kid. Jan to March would be bitter cold in NJ.
