Curious how much LRS do you feed

[Abhishek]

Just out of curiosity - how many LRS reef frenzy or herbivore or fish fish frenzy do you go through in a month ?

I was doing some calculation and realized my numbers are quite high . I calculated I go through 1 pack of LRS Hervibore in 7-10 days in a tank of 160 gallons with around 12-15 fishes - mostly tangs , butterflies and only acroporas .

I do have very high phosphates around 0.7-0.8 ppm which no body minds - yes acros grow slow but that’s better for me anyways .
On the plus side my Klein’s do not eat my acros and I can keep my tangs in line without fights .

But just wondering what’s everyone else’s mileage on LRS . I go through around 4-5 packs a month .
At this rate - I wish Larry would give me a monthly discount lol ! And that’s just LRS and not considering PE Mysis which I go through 2 flat packs a month .

Regards,
Abhishek

I alternate foods, so it lasts me a few months. They get reef frenzy once every other day.

My curiosity is around how many packs a month - nothing more

A pack a few months ?

That is about what I get but I also feed MidJersey Reef Supreme and angel diet.

I feed a single cube of PE mysis daily across 3 tanks.. maybe 120g total. I supplement with nori and hikari wafers. I don’t have any huge fish, biggest being a scopas tang thats about 4 inches.

With $99 I get free shipping but my last order took a month to get in covid winter.

I have less demand right now so it lasts quite a bit. But I also feed 3 different types of frozen mix so don't need much. Mine generally last little over a month.

An 8oz pack of LRS fish frenzy lasts me about 5-6weeks. I also feed hikari mysis cubes and PE mysis flat packs. My tank is a wrasse dominant 90g that gets fed 3-4 times daily.

None - it's not available at any of the typical places I buy frozen. Plenty of quality alternatives.

I use 1 pack about every month.

I alternate between PE mysis, LRS reef frenzy, and PE calanus for frozen. Once a day about the size of 2 cubes.

I'm feeding 10 fish, mostly wrasses.

Yeah. My fish are still smaller, so I give them about a cubes worth every other day.

Fish get feed 3 times a day.

Every morning they get a cube of "Marine Cuisine". My wife feeds them and the cubes make it easy for her.

Then the 2nd meal of the deal I alternate. One day I'll do the reef frenzy. The next day I'll do a cube of the pink "reef plankton" mixed in with chunk of blood worms. I also dose amino acids with the 2nd meal for the coral.

3rd meal is just frozen sally's adult brine shrimp. They get that every night.

I also feed half a sheet of nori a day. I have 4 tangs, but all are still small. And often soak the food in selcon.

I purposely overfeed.
