Tried my hand at making frozen this weekend. Had everything frozen the day before. Bought a food processor to grate it. Made a mistake with the first items I grated since I had left the blade in so it ground that up pretty fine but caught it early at least. I shucked the clams and oysters the night before. I used frozen clams, oysters, octopus, butterfish, flying fish roe, freeze dried mysis , plankton, and attic copepods, chopped up nori, various pellets I had, vita-chem, and amino acids. The fish like it so it’s a success.

Nice supply. In the future. Add a little:
Garlic extract
Selcon vitamins
Aminos

The first batch that was chopped fine would be good for coral

I prefer cubes, so use the mini silicone ice cube trays to freeze mine.

And for the love of your fish's health, don't add garlic to their food. It's been shown to cause liver damage in fish. It's great temporarily to get finicky fish to eat, but should not be fed long term.

I agree when I chop mine a little too fine, it's great coral food! I tend to mix some finely chopped in with the courser stuff, so everything gets to eat at one time.
