Hey Everyone,
I just completed my messy project for the day. I made a batch of coral and fish food based off the famous Eric Borneman recipe in his book "Corals" and similar to ones found on the net. I didn't follow the recipe to the "T" due to difficulty finding certian items (DT's oyster eggs, fish roe, ect.) but I did manage to find a lot of great food and blended them all together to make a very concentrated and healthy, assortment of shrimp, mussles, scallops (no not the
flame scallop that Greg sold me then died
- sorry Greg
), silversides, octopus, squid, green sea weed, pellet fish food, selcon, Cylope-eze, Kent Phyto, Kent zoo, and Kent cromoplex, as well as
mysis shrimp, two types of brine shrimp, and plankton (I had to add about 8 oz. of RODI water to the whole batch to make it more liquid during blending). I don't have the exact proportions with me at the time, but I can type up the whole recipe if someone wants to know it or what exactly I have in it. I pureed half of the meats and sea weed to a mush, then added the other half and chopped it so it is a little chunky. The idea is to create many sized bits of food so that corals of all sizes can eat it as well as small/medium fish.
SOOoooo, I was wondering if anyone wants to buy 5 oz. bags of this coral/fish food? Just to cover my costs on the food (which was quite high for coral/fish food - and Yes my aquarium eats better than I do!) I would have to charge $8.00 per 5 oz bag, and I will have 8 bags available to sell (The bags are Glad Ziplock made for freezing meat, so they are double lined and double sealed). I am also up for trades for cool corals and such. Just PM me or respond to this thread if your interested. Thanks for looking!!

The fish seem to love it and the corals eat it, so I guess I completed my mission
