Marine Snow over DT's?

benf · 08/23/2006, 09:49 AM

Your thoughts on the products? I have been using DT's, but a couple of people said that Marine Snow is a better product, and just wanted some other input.

My tank is made up of Leathers, Zoa, Lps, gorgs, Ricordia, and a Birds Nest. I realize not all these have the same feeding requirements, but for the ones that need this type of plankton, which product do you believe to be better?

thanks

Marine Snow is mostly water or so they say

Thanks for your input....see that is the opposite of the people that told me to switch over. That is why i like to get more than one oppion.

i will add that with DTs you get alot more phytoplankton for your money. just be sure to keep it refrigerated!

I also agree that DT's is better for your tank. I have a bottle of Marine Snow that I have used just once and it seems like mainly water.
