DT's seems to work well.

DT's and Liquid Life are my main two I use.
Sometimes I use ESV's spray-dried Marine Phytopankton.
Alsp Kent's Zooplex on occassions.

ive been trying to get my LFS to get some cyclopeeze, i have heard great tings about it, if you can find it, i have heard the frozen is better than freeze-dried.

I use DT's twice a week. I just bought some frozen cyclopeeze to try.

[Flipper]

My problem with DT's is that the shipping is always 10 times the price of the product.

[Reef Geek]

The reason it costs so much shipped is cause it has to stay refrigerated or else the plankton die. I am lucky that the LFS happens to have it, and Marine Depot is just up the freeway. As long as we are asking q's about food what exactly are golden pearls and cyclopeeze?? Doesnt Cyclo come in a big brick, is it difficult or messy to break up and feed?

I'm getting block of cycloeeze this weekend. My friend on TRT sells the stuff, I can't wait to see it in action. I've heard crazy good things about it.

Peace

Essmaker I think the best way to appoach it would be, "what exactly are you trying to feed" Thier are a number of things in the tak, including a number of coarls that all have defering requirements when it comes to food.
let us know, then it is easier to give you the right type of food for that type of coral.

I understand that the stuff loses all of it's nutritional value if not kept refrigerated, although it can still be fed.

[essmaker]

I have a hammer, frogspawn, shrooms and a bunch of buttons
and star polyps, and various feather dusters .

I realize that not all of these would take advantage of phyto.

Does anyone have anything good or bad to say about Kent Marine Phytoplex?

i also use DTs and Aquatic Eco-Systems zooplankton, usually every other or third day. Fish and corals seem to enjoy it.
