coral chow contributions

Recommended Posts

Steve and all, didn't see the thread started yet, so thought I would get this going.

 

My wife has been begging me to clean out the freezer of extra ingredients.

Here's a list of what I have to contribute, all frozen.

2-3 squid

dozen oysters

mysid shrimp from Jemco (I have a whole block so if someone wants a quarter just for food, will be happy to sell it).

Krill from Jemco

Anything else I find way back in there.

 

Dry goods-

cyclopeeze flake

golden pearls

spirulina powder

natural astaxanthin powder

1 jar zooplankton, saltwater.

nori sheets

 

Still needed-

raw shrimp

whole fish

mussels

more of some of the above?

 

We need a head count to know how much other ingredients we will be needing.  I have a dedicated blender top that fits standard blenders I can bring along as well.  Will bring some dry ice for freezing and transport back home.

I'll bring the white (Rock) fish, shrimp, some DT's and lemon to remove the odor from our hands!  I'll also bring some baggies.

I'll be supplying some Spirulina flake as well.  I have half an old bottle of Selcon (about 1yr old), so we can put all of that in (unless it ages and is useless by now).

"I can bring frozen brine shrimp, baggies, shrimp, and/or the easy things I can get at Giant."

I also have spirulina flake, formula 2 flake, and frozen formula 1.

What kind of proportions do we need to bring?  I kind of figure that recipe won't satisfy all the people interested.

This recipe made about 16 baggies of food last time.  If we need to double it, we surely can...  !!!

 

If people bring a lot of the various hard to get dry goods, we can do a run to the Korean fish market before the grinding party.  We certainly should be able to have quite a copious amound of fuuudddd...

Steve,  was that enough rock fish?  Should I bring more?  We have a REAL industrial type blender at the Zoo that we may be able to use (if dear sweet ousnakebyte wants to run down to invertebrates to get it?!?!).  Call me if you can, Mike.

Not enough rock fish, but a better solution is to get a whole mackeral to add to it.  That's why I added that to the list.

 

Thanks clownfish4 and ireland.  Mahvelous!

I can bring some selcon and maybe some goodies from the asian supermarket

If you are making the trip to the asian food market, please do get the following:

 

1 whole (large) mackeral

1 large bag shredded nori (dried, no additives, not baked)

 

If you come early, I'll go with you to Loto in Fairfax Circle and we can enjoy the opportunity to look at all the stuff that is available...

I can cover-

3-4 squirts of Vita-chem

2-3 squirts of selcon

 

"sushi eggs" aka fish roe

half teaspoon of shredded garlic

one large krill frozen pack

 

I have plenty of nori in the cupboard already (I make my own rolls as well as use it for tank food).

Steve,

I don't know if I will be able to get there early. I am having some carpet installed and not sure what time they will be coming. I will make a trip tonight to the market. Do we have enought blenders? I might be able to convince the wife to borrow one of hers.

Steve- I have truckloads of golden pearls.  I also have dried cyclopeeze flake that we can put into the cocktail.  Might get ambitious and strain off a bunch of rotifers as well.  I need to cut it back as the eggs hatched before I thought they would (didn't know exact date they were laid).  Will have to wait a bit to give the fry a run as i am taking a trip in august most likely- and no one to feed them a couple times a day :)  I don't want the cultures to crash so best to cut them back.  I will also bring a 2 liter bottle of greenwater that we can use as the liquid base.
