How to feed
Break off a small piece of one cube and thaw it in a cup of tank water. Target-feed or broadcast a small amount 2 to 3 times per week alongside a staple diet. Feed only what your fish and corals consume in a few minutes and remove anything uneaten. Do not microwave and do not refreeze after thawing.
