The food you make looks good, but for all that work it's just so much easier to buy a pack or 2 of LRS. Unless you have some big predators I can't imagine what you save being that much + LRS seafood is likely fresher and higher quality then many grocery stores depending on how close to the ocean you live and they add probiotics. There was a time I would make my own fish food but the store bought frozen fish food has improved so much I can't compete on quality.
Yea, LRS is a great quality food for sure. I'm in Southern California, so I can get super fresh ingredients locally for cheap. Making a batch of this food takes less time than watching this video really. I like to feed a wide variety of foods, so my own frozen mix is a great addition to the commercially available foods I also feed.
Yea, you could. I only buy the fresh stuff because it's available locally, and because it's cheaper than the frozen bagged seafood. Also, sometimes frozen seafoods are sprayed with chemicals to help preserve them - not always, but sometimes.
I was wondering, does your skimmer overflow after feeding this food? I made a small badge with shrimps, squid, clams and drops of ken garlic. After the first feeding my skimmer went nuts.
