HI onix. You can use frozen, watch for additives in the frozen product and don't use pre cooked frozen foods.. Fresh food from the deli works best.

You can blend it all in a blender, very good , make it like a milk to a thick milkshake type substance, Add RO water to make thinner, You can also add vitamins and algae strips, Do a search on here for "blender mush" and you will find a lot of peoples recipes.

Be careful not to over feed or it may contribute to nitrates and phosphates.
