anyone use Tahitian Blend from brinrshrimp direct?

I got 2 clams a deresa and a maxima (sold to me as a maxima but i think it is a crocea). I was wondering if you guys use the Tahitian Blend. should keep on using it or should i just go get some DTs?

As long as you keep the Tahitian Blend in the coldest portion of your freezer (usually where the ice trays go), and use it before it reaches 6 months of age, there is nothing wrong with feeding this food. However should you allow it to warm up, or keep it for longer than 6 months, the nutritional value of this food falls off dramatically.

i use both the tahitian blend cryopaste and DTs on a regular basis. you have to use the cryopaste within a couple months because it will slowly degrade even when kept in the freezer. the cryopaste is definitely a cheaper alternative, allowing more frequent feeding, but personally i would never completely stop using DTs in favor of the tahitian blend. i generally do DTs twice a week and the cryopaste twice a week.
