Pellet food?

[smallreef]

I have never fed pellets as I had always had aggressive fish like triggers... now with smaller fish and a possible reef soon I am looking into an automatic feeder and a pellet type food to supplement my frozen food one time a day...

I am planning on having some wrasses, jawfish, blennies, gobies and possibly some hardy anthias...

 

So, what type do you use and how does it work for you?

While I generally go with flakes for that role, I've used the Ocean Nutrition Formula Two pellets as well as the sera marin granules (the little yellow bottles that periodically get handed out at WAMAS meetings). Both were, like you describe, additions to the once-a-day frozen, and all my fish (and some LPS, for that matter) seemed to like them just fine. I think the Ocean Nutrition Formula One and Prime Reef come in a pelleted form as well.

New life spectrum works really well for me.

+1. That is all I ever fed with mysis as a snack a couple times a month.

Dainichi blows em all away as far as low ash and hight protien and vitamins. They also spray the goodies on after the cooking of the pellets making them much more potent.
