Filter Feeders

[clockwurk]

Ive noticed tons of products by the same company selling specifically for filter feeders.
ChromaPlex, Micro - Vert, PhytoPlex, ZooPlex and others.

The amount of products out there can make any newbie's head spin. The question is, what is the difference between products?

Are there general rules to follow when it comes to this stuff?
What corals need them? What to watch out for? etc...

Thanks all :)

I think its all bunk, most of the feeding products you see are pretty useless IMO.

DTs phytoplankton and cyclopeeze zooplankton are the only two plankton foods I've ever heard were actually nutritious.

Well, I just bought phytoplankton (some frozen version)... stuck it in my tank...gonna see if it makes any diff other than raise my nitrate :confused:

Along with DTs phytoplankton and cyclopeeze, phytofeast are all I would use.
