Hey Peet, yeah sometimes we forget that everyone dosent know what all of the abbreviations that are used on this board stand for. The Ocean Nutrition frozen food will normally come two ways in a flat pack or in frozen cubes about the size of dice. I personally like the frozen cubes. They make several different types...ONF1, ONF2 and ONF VHP along with several other frozen food types....
HTH (Hope This Helps)

If THOSE snowflakes are for sale, I know I couldn't afford them. I wouldn't be surprised if that was future breeding stock he's growing out. Definately some REALLY nice fish in that tank!!!

Thanks Brad,


Randy I believe the VHP Has no gel binder added to it only makeing it more messy?

Still it would be great for fry

takecare,
Cary Gld!

Cary ,yes you are right it is a little bit more messy as it does not have as much jel binder as the 1 and 2 but I like the extra goodies that it has in it plus my pairs seem to like it better. I feed all 3 types to the fry, I just try and feed the VHP before I do my last water change for the day and then drop in the blackworms for a midnight snack for them
