I wouldn't risk it. 1 pound of BW is nothing compared to the cost of your fish. ;)

Toss it, you cant feed em thawed foods, the bacteria levels are ungodly.


dont worry about it, I left my shipment of frozen food in the box out overnight, got up it was a slurry, it got pitched. Wife got me on that one but I wont take a risk when it comes to their food supply.

I small bit of bad food can wipe out the entire tank even if it doesnt get consumed.

Yeah, I've been there done that one too! Sev'l times....I pitched'm for the same reasons, not worth the chance...however, now I feed'm to the earthworm container, no waste then....but it is tempting, so don't take the chance with the fish....

Yep, I forget ALOT so I use a small cooler with an ice pack inside with the food and store that in the freezer, but helps incase I leave it out atleast I got a little time before it melts down.
I feed multiple tanks so the cooler is easier to transport from the utility room to the fish rooms.

This is a very good idea! Others may want to try this.
