Cant do that cause my marron clown will probably never let no one near it until he is finished, which will probably be never (he is a PIG) he will probably start hosting the clip, he's a fat***
Are you talking about the flake or frozen?
the frozen F2 is messy as hell. I soak it in Zoe and just toss it in my tank. Almost instantly the tank would look like a total mess with fish flying all over and food all scattered everywhere. I don't turn off the Tunze when I feed but the mess usually clears within 5 mins.

I can't stand the gel (sticky) coating on the ocean nutrition frozen cubes. I believe their 'aqua yums' line now doesn't using the holding gel. The holding gel is so annoying.

With the frozen formula 2, I usually cut the cube in half and let it soak in a cup that is designated for my fish feeding, then smash it up into small pieces (wich sucks BTW) then drop it in the tank.
Always messy, I never wanted to drop the half a cube in the tank cause I felt the dominant fish wont let anyother fish eat.

Formula 1 and 2 are a pain to feed. I find that puting them inot water and placing under one of my lights heats them up enough that the gel part dissolves. Then I mix it up and it is perfect. So maybe if you use hot water or something.

+1. Gel sucks. Ive been feeding the aqua yums squid & it pretty much falls apart. Otherwise I chop prime reef up with my ginsu blade :p
