Homemade fish food

[freeswimmingfis]

I made a fresh batch of fish food over the weekend. I used 4 clams, 4 squids, 5 scallops, 6 shrimp, 4 cubes of Mysis, 4 cubes of brine shrimp, 3 cubes of krill, a few inches of spiralina flake, some pellets and a finely chopped up sheet of nori. I cut it all up by hand small enough for everyone to eat it, I left some peices semi large for the the tangs and wrasse. I then laid it flat in the freezer in a ziploc bag.
I just pinch off a small amount, thaw it in tank water and dump it in. They go nuts on it!
It cost me about $7 in all, I made 2 bags so it should last for a few months.

Is anyone else making there own?
What do you use?

Sure, there are plenty of recipes and tips in the DIY forums.

Yep, saw those.
Anyone else making their own? How are your fish responding to it?

i made my own with similar ingridients you used. I added garlic (and the juice) and also liquid baby vitamins as well. I have using it for over 4 months now. The fish love it! At this rate, I will have enough to last the rest of the year, and I only spent about $10 total.

You guys just blend everything and pour it to the tank?

No, I out it all in a zip lock bag and freeze it. Then break off a piece, thaw it in a cup of tank water, then pour it in.

I froze mine in 2 large zip lock baggies and also found 2 plastic ice cube trays (the kind with small cubes). I brake off a little piece each eveing and thaw it in tank water and then use a turkey baster to feed the tank.

I preportion mine in 2oz portion cups (about 1/2 tablespoon in ea) I pop it out in a small cup of tank water and dump it in. Makes it easy.
