    I watched this video on youtube on how to make it.
    Here's the link to the video:
    YouTube - DIY Reef Food

    It seems pretty good. Has anyone tried it? Good/Bad reviews? Also should I use frozen mysis shrimp or freeze dried?

    Limpet is a neighbor of mine, well, a neighbor about 10 miles away;)

    I use his reef food. I previously used rod's food, but I prefer limpet's reef. Limpet's reef food has much bigger chunks of food ( in the larger pack) and makes less waste IME than rod's reef.

    Have you tried the limpit's reef?

    There are a lot of foods out there (I have not tried all of them to be honest), and I used to think rod's was the best of all the one's I have tried, then I tried the limpit's reef and liked it much better than rod's.

    I have always wanted to try making limpit's food, but I am honestly to lazy to make it. I seem to fell that breaking off pieces of mysis, squid, reef plankton, cyclops, and krill is easier...I will give limpits a try this weekend. I think I can find time for it.

    I do need to add that Limpet sells his food locally. I love saving money, but making my own food is something i probably wouldn't do.

    I let Mr. ziploc baggie himself make it and I pay him for it;)

    Yes he sells it, locally at least.

    Several stores in the area sell it. See if he will ship it to you.
