They do elicit a pretty nice feeding response. I'm not sure I can justify the price though, and am suspicious that it contains a high amount of phosphate.

I hand stirred it into my blender mush after blending, along with cyclopseeze. I feed my brain and GBTA the entire mix via baster and they absolutely love it. My fish pick out the seafood chunks, and generally ignore the cyclopseeze.

have you tested it to see ??

I have been feeding it for the past month and seen a huge diff on PE. I feed them twice a week one is with the return pump and skimmer off but sometimes I leave everything on... and also I feed Rotifiers twice a day :D and cyclo once a week :D

No. That's why I said I'm suspicious :)

I know oysters are pretty polluting themselves, and I'd imagine oyster eggs are along those same lines. No proof at all, though, just thoughts.

Well they r here.

Just fed my tank with 5 drops.I took a small piece out to thaw,& used CA syringe.

It wouldn't suprise me, though a lot of nutritious foods probably contain a fair bit of phosphate.

I'd love to see a P / weight chart for various foods, but would expect to find them in most things.

Take it slow. It takes a tank a fair bit of time to become nutrient poor ... and it's easy to go the other way.
IMO, look for results in a month, not tomorrow + you'll be fine. Most positive changes happen over weeks, I try to slowly add in new foods to be sure over a month's time it's not more than the skimmer + I can export.
