Dunno, that's part of my rigorous Q.A. process

 

[Mr. Ugly]

Deep fried.... made from oysters.... it's gotta be good

Picked up a bottle from Max today. How much should I use for a 12G tank? 2-3 drops good enough??

 

[GreshamH]

The thing with feeding and directions on bottles is we really can't tell you how much you will actually need to feed as all tanks have a different DEB (dynamic energy budget). I'd say start slow, a couple drops a day, then work up to the recommended dosage over a month or so.

 

[Tumbleweed]

Thanks Gresham. I am going to pick some up today. My LFS just got some in on Friday

How can you tell it's enough? The coral open up all the time??

 

[tuberider]

I'm all about DEB, but not too keen on the DSB ;D

very cool, lately I've been interested in the roles of trace elements and vitamins in marine biochemistry, of particular interest to me are iron and ascorbic acid. Also interesting was last week my doctor told me to watch my blood pressure and cholesterol, a little research on the internet and I cam across this:

"The National Heart and Lung Institute suggest oysters as an ideal food for inclusion in low-cholesterol diets. Oysters are an excellent source of vitamins A, B1(thiamin), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), C (ascorbic acid) and D (calciferol). Four or five medium size oysters supply the recommended daily allowance of iron, copper, iodine, magnesium, calcium, zinc, manganese and phosphorus."

Gresham, do you guys have the #s (mg) for any of these in Oyster Feast? I'm particularly interested in mg of ascorbic acid, iron, and also phosphates. If its a trade secrete and mum's the word I'll understand

Thanks,

Josh

check this out,

oysters have HUGE levels of B12, iron, zinc, and copper (and many other nutrients)

 

[GreshamH]

That's talking about the whole oyster, we only use the ovary

I'll see if we have those numbers and get back to you

I fed my tank the second time last night and I actually saw the SPS eating. So cool 8) ..
