It seems pricey...but if you think about it, it's not that bad...

Where I work sells it for $15.99 and I know it's cheaper online. However, it's a 60 ml bottle...you use 1/2 ml per dose, that's 120 doses.

It's really not THAT expensive.

Worth it, IMO

best preventative medicine you can buy!

I use it mostly in the making of my blender mush, and to stimulate feeding in troubled corals.

I paid about $10 for 60 mils and use it in reef mush like bill, actually I stole his recipe . its great stuff esp if you feed some flake or frozen brine, it definatly fills in the gaps, nutritionally, may help restore feeding responce in difficult feeders and I wouldn't even consider keeping Tangs or Large angel species, or any other fish that are prone to Head and lateral Line Erosion with out it.

As you probably know everything in this hobby is pricy . It is good stuff the best way IMHO is to soak food with it every day or every few days. The fish food I don't think that it would taste very well
