Anyway the float-offs 20% in percentage terms as mentioned is reflective in the overall usable bottle? ie. 80% is ultimately used? As suggested by a few other bros... it really depends on your feeding method. I believe my method is not optimum yet therefore wastage is inevitable... I am trying out different feeding methods to further minimize wastage... it also depends on how lazy/spoilt your fishes are... like mine... they try not to feed on the surface as it is less elegant Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member gunzo Posted July 13, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted July 13, 2006 finally found this thread .. for those using Henry's feed .. don't bother trying this .. 50% of my fish rejected this If you have not found anything better .. then this is good .. and it gets the harder to feed fishes to start eating .. my cleaner wrass outright rejected this .. but my leopard wrass started feeding immediately (he has never eaten the food I fed the rest before) all my tangs are rubbish bin .. so they ate everything up .. I found my grazers loved it .. and my omnivores prefer Henry's mix are they good ?? 50/50 .. personal opinions .. based on observations of feeding patterns ..

And k i check with u, how often do u feed yr tank with roti feast? Daily? Thanks Hi there My Gonio? Well... I guess I was lucky to pick up a nice healthy specimen (to begin with). I feed Roti-Feast™ twice a week only. All I can say is... my corals are getting much healthier as my tank matures... I wouldn't give all credits to Roti-Feast™ alone as I am also feeding a whole range of pretty good food/supplements namely: 1. Polyp Lab Reef Roid (once a week) 2. Polyp Lab System Reef-resh (every night) 3. DT's Phytoplankton (once a week... oh dear... now I remember, I ran out of it) 4. Argent's Cyclopeeze & Marinium Zooplankton (once a week) 5. Occasional dumping of Henry's Mix (I only do it once every 2 weeks as I find Henry's Mix too rich. I can immediately see the effect on my skimmer... it sorta pollutes the tank too much). 6. Blah blah blah... Do not expect Roti-Feast™ to do magic... treat it as another form of food source/supplement for your lovely corals... and due to slightly higher cost, I don't think this product should form your "one-and-only-daily-food-source" for your corals.

Hi Gunzo Happy to hear that your Leopard Wrasse is finally eating (although it happens to reject Henry's Mix). As for your Cleaner Wrasse... well... they are a "pain-in-the-arse" to feed actually, my deceased specimen at least touched Polyp Lab Reef Roid and Cyclopeeze. One of the reasons why Henry's Mix is well accepted by most fishes is... IT IS A MIX!!! And it smells really "fishy" and it pollutes the tank quite badly. For me, I try not to feed it too often as it creates too much of a mess in the tank... (I do not own a Beckett or a Deltec ) I tried soaking the Arcti-Pods™ with Seachem Garlic Guard and I find it more effective in enticing picky eaters. As mentioned in my previous post... VARIETY VARIETY VARIETY... it is an expensive food source... more like Caviar for the fishes (imagine... coming all the way from the Arctic)... so feed sparingly, don't spoilt your fishes too much Once again, congratz upon your LW feeding... I am lucky to get my LW feed on pellets nowadays Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 I'm sure your corals and fishes will thrive under such wide variety of food... it's also more fun for us reefers to feed different types of food lah... or else so boring... I have 6 different types of pellets also... just to make myself happy!!!

jervismun Posted July 26, 2006 Author Share Posted July 26, 2006 Let me try to answer you here for the benefit for other readers... First of all... congratz!!! Nemo breeding non-stop in captivity is a very good sign 1) Yes, Roti-Feast™ has a lifespan 2) Yes, it is better to buy from a fresh source (just like we buy fresh produce from market)... that's why AM only bring in limited amount every month... they don't keep stock for long... that's why sometimes reefers get disappointed if the demand gets higher than supply... I heard US side demand too high... so they can only send limited bottles to our tiny little island. 3) The date stated on the bottle is based on no-refrigeration... so if you are to keep it in the fridge all the time... it will prolong the expiry date by 3 months. 4) I'm sure your baby Nemos will enjoy Roti-Feast™ very much... so what are you planning to do once they grow up? Perhaps you wanna try selling them Was at AM today... saw a reefer bought a bottle, I think they still have stock for this month Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
