Has anyone tried using Ocean Nutrition Formula One frozen food for newly hatched fry? The particles are tiny and the stuff can be smeared onto the inside of a bowl.

The particles are as fine as powder, so they are small enough, and it is bound with a gelatin. I'm thawing out a piece, wiping it with my finger around the inside of a container and letting it dry a bit before I move the fry to the new container. I'm experimenting with a few albinos.

I know Cary used to use it on very young fry but not for artificial raising that I know of. It just might work. Let us know how it goes.

Will do. It was Al who suggested once I use it on young fry so I thought...
