fish food
Hello,
I'm looking for a non-frozen food for general feeding purposes for my fish. I'll have some small jawfish and a cleanup crew with assorted corals with a starfish. I'm not familiar with the differences in food, although I do know that I personally prefer small sinking pellets. I've heard that you want to make sure that you don't get food that has antiviral or antifungus stuff in it for regular feedings. Is there some thread or page of information that someone can refer me to, or any advice someone can give me? Thanks!

Evidently spectrum is the way to go. Anyone else have an opinion?
Thanks

New Life Spectrum is the best food on the market IMO. I use the 1mm sinking pellets to feed fish and corals alike. I also feed prime reef flake because my cardinal wont eat pellets.

Spectrum is definitely the best, but you've heard that before
 Along with the normal frozen mysis and other frozen "entree's," I also feed my fish the following: Formula 2 Algae Flakes Cyclopeeze Flakes Freeze-Dried Krill Formula 2 Sinking Algae Pellets I also give them fresh, raw food: Shrimp Short-neck clams Mussells

I feed a mix of Ocean Nutrition Formula 1 flake, Formula 2 flake, Prime Reef flake, cyclopeze flake, and frozen Ocean Nutrition variety pack with a couple of drops of Garlic Extreme.
