    Ok so I know this sounds like a stupid question because cyclop-eeze is a fish food. But when I put it in my tank, it basically disintegrates into a powder. Do large fish such as tangs and clowns and angels actually eat this powder? Or is it only for corals and tiny fish?

    Mine is the frozen bar version too. But I find that once it hits the water it dissolves. The fish go for it, but I'm not sure what they are actually eating.

    Edit - I know that these are small pods, so I know what the fish are sensing. But my question is whether they provide any substance/nutrition for larger fish.
