BLUF: What food can I feed via dosing pump?
After a quick search around R2R with some keywords I couldn't find much on shelf stable food products for corals/inverts. Let me put this into context, though, of what I am trying to do.
I recently switched from the KZ coral system (1-4) to the FM Balling system. I like the fact that the elements can be mixed directly with the 2-part mix and thusly frees up a whole 4-channel doser for...other things.
Currently it is dosing a gradually decreasing amount of carbon-source, and a very nifty "no shake needed" version of Acro Power made by FM called Ultra Amin. I have just started using the aminos less than 24 hours ago so the jury is still out.
ANYWAYS
I would love to have the doser also contribute some sort of suspended food. The obvious hurdles here are refrigeration and suspension. All the products I have seen need to be refrigerated after opening or need to be shaken/mixed before dosing. I would obviously coordinate the dosing with skimmer shut off via Apex.
