Foods Used

• 

  Automatic Pellet Feeder

  This is an automatic tank feeder which I use for supplemental feeding to the tank. It is one of the most basic feeders on the market. Nothing fancy.

• 

  Dry Foods

  Dry foods provide convenient, shelf-stable nutrition for reef tanks. This section covers dried seaweeds, flake foods, pelletized foods, and powdered supplements from brands like Ocean Nutrition, OSI, New Life Spectrum, and SeaVeggies.

• 

  Frozen Foods

  Frozen foods offer variety and nutrition in a convenient form. I make my own frozen food mixes from fresh seafood, but store-bought frozen foods are convenient for daily feeding. Popular options include mysis shrimp, krill, plankton, and mixed rations.

• 

  Liquid Foods

  Liquid foods from Reed Mariculture provide concentrated nutrition in a pour-and-feed format. Phyto-Feast, Roti-Feast, and Oyster Feast are popular options for feeding corals, fish, and copepod populations. Tigger-Pods and Arcti-Pods add copepod cultures directly to the tank.
