So I accidentally left the freezer door open overnight and by the morning most of the food was completely melted. Closed the door and refroze it. My question is, is it still safe to use? This happened a few days ago and I used it once or twice to feed corals. Is that safe? Thanks

I did feed it 2-3 times, though mentioned it when I visited my LFS and they strongly advised against it... did grab a few sheets of food to be safe.

Though some of the fish food was in there too, though it was shipped the day before on dry ice so it was still solid, though I won't have fish for another month so will any bacteria potentially on it die within a month of being frozen?
