Cyclop-eeze

So this stuff is only found in one arctic lake in the world, that happens to be so salty and cold nothing naturally eats it...BUT they claim its some kinda super-food for fish and corals.

Anybody use this for freshwater tropicals with success?

The hungry LFS owner wanted me to buy some wafers of it yesterday when I asked about ordering some New Life Spectrum wafers.

I think that company needs an award for stating the bleeding obvious!

Of course a fish fed on nothing but a high-protein, high-fat food will grow faster than a fish fed on cheap flake food.

I don't however see any long-term studies into the effects of such a high fat fat diet on the fish, or in fact any reason to spend £12 on 100g of this compared to £1.25 for 100g of frozen bloodworm.

Bought a differnt brand of Frozen Cyclops today at the LFS. Holy smokes! Looks like sand swirling around in there, thats how small they are. Once the fish noticed it was supposed to be food (well, about half of them noticed) they started trying to eat it so its not a total failure. I guess I'll just save the stuff in case I ever get any fry.

Yeah, it should be good for growing out fry very quickly.
