Anybody make their own mix of fish and coral food? If so, what do you do?
-
Yep, I mix lots of stuff, mysis, large mysis, spirulina brine, clam, white fish, shrimp, scallops,fish eggs, krill and squid.
I add vitamins to whatever I get out for the week.

There are several of us that make our own mix of food. Once a year this club as a premium member orders from brine shrimp direct. You can pick up flats or cubes dirt cheap compared to the stores. I will melt them down mix it all together and refreeze. Will put in brine, mysis, krill, daphnia, chopped up nori, blood worms, rotifers. Fish and corals all love it. I think toby sells his mix, not sure if Lazys coral house sells his mix or not.

How do others join-in? How do we get notified?

You just need to become a premium member then watch for the announcement around January/February. There is a premium member section of the forum titled group buys and it will be announced there along with an occasional salt buy also. As a member you also can borrow any of the clubs tools and testing equipment. Well worth the $10 membership fee. Plus free entry to annual frag swap. You can join at any of the meetings or here online.

Thank you! Silly question here, I believe I am already a premium member, that’s what it says under my name. Is there another way to make sure?
