What does it look like? Andy gave me some but they look like flake. I thought they are little tiny thing look like eggs. That's what the frozen stuff look like. Anyway, I try to feed my clowns and they spit it out. I thought fish love these stuff ??? ..

Mine looks like a red powder, and I use it to feed my coral at night.

That's what I thought unless there are different type ??? ..

There is a wafer style of this however, and according to the comments section it looks like a flake.

What Brian said.
The freeze dried version looks like what you'd expect the frozen to look like if it were...well...dried out. Then there's the wafer kind which I find as useful as...nothing. Simply because I never need to feed that much to my fish at a time, plus I'm not sure what the emulsion (stuff to make it stick together) is. If you want some Phong, I can bring you a fair amount of the freeze dried stuff....along with the $$ I owe you.

Yeah, I've had a can for over half a year and still have most of it left. Since I don't feed that stuff everyday, it lasts a loong time.

And...the projector?

I'll try to swing by like Friday around 11. Going to try to check out Max's place too and check on some prices.

And I figure I should keep it, been using it for a little while now. Only have ~40hrs lamp life left on it. You have the manual or remote for it by any chance? Turning on/off is getting pretty tiring.

Hey phong- we use the dried cyclopeeze, and its just this red flake stuff. the clowns dont really eat it that much, i just try to feed them frozen reef plankton and mysis shrimps, and the dry food i feed them is called new life spectrum. its these little brown balls. the clowns LOVE them.
