Hi all, I have been successfully using the San Francisco Bay brand of frozen food in my 120g reef tank. Usually I get a package of Emerald Entre and a Saltwater Multi Pack. The Multi Pack has cubes that include mysis, krill, brine shrimp, and some other stuff. I usually feed a small cube of the Emerald Entre with one of the meaty cubes in the Multi Pack.
So, I’m thinking I want to customize my food cubes a bit, but I don’t want to go to the Asian market and get a bucket of shellfish and octopi. I’m thinking of thawing the Multi Pack and Emerald Entre cubes, mixing them up, and adding cyclops and Reef Roids, then freezing them in small cubes again. Before I do all this, I have a few questions:
Is it a bad idea to thaw and then refreeze the pre-packaged food?
Does it make sense to add Reef Roids? I know lots of people only feed the stuff 2 or 3 times per week. I feed pretty heavily once a day
Is there anything else I should add? Like, amino acid compounds or something?
Suggestions would be appreciated!
