I take 3-4 cubes mysis and 1 cube brine into a plastic urine container and thaw in the fridge. Spoon in what I need each feeding and then back in the fridge. Lasts me about 1-2 days. I let some of the liquid run off the spoon but I don't strain.

This is my method for the last 20+ years. Never an issue either.I tend to avoid overthinking it. Throw a few days worth of frozen food (reef frenzy in my case) into a small glass container with a lid. Feed it whenever I feel like into the tank, store the rest in the fridge.
My nutrients have been super super low of late, so I’m up to feeding about 6 or 8 times a day. Working from home is good, but I have a plank auto feeder on order to automate most of those with freeze dried plankton soon. Will keep a couple of reef frenzy feedings though, since the fish definitely dig it
I strictly told them not to eat my shrimp cubes. ;WackyOh. Forgot to add. If you have a spouse, or want one, the lid on that food container in the fridge is *super* important
Like @RuuToo, I put a week’s worth of LRS into a lab squirt bottle, add Selcon and water (saltwater or RODI, depending on what’s available), let it thaw in the fridge, then just squirt it in at feeding time. Works great and makes it quick so I don’t have to sit and wait for a cube of something to thaw in a glass. Mix in whatever you like, just make sure that it can fit through the tube on the bottle!
I just pick up frozen food and feed with my bare hand or I feed with a turkey baster
It will stick to glass unless an aggressive fish rips it off. The Fertility Frenzy blend sticks the best because it has a gel binder in the recipe.Does reef frenzy stick to glass?
