My take on the overly priced round acrylic thingy majiggy.
I bought the IM Gourmet Defroster a couple of weeks ago. I'm not impressed with it to be honest. I mean all it is a round acrylic food dispenser. Not innovative, nothing special. I feed Reef Frenzy frozen foods to my tank and part of my process was putting chunks of the food in a little container, let it defrost, stirring it with a fork to break up the food, and then pour into the tank. It has worked incredibly well when I do it. Putting the pieces in the defroster, they just sit there. Small bits come off, but not the bigger chunks that require a fork to break up. Don't get me wrong, it appears to be of good quality, one on a small list of positives. If I had to do it over, I would've skipped it.
It's best to be used with cubed mysis or similar cubed foods. So if you feed those foods, I would imagine it work quite well. But it is it worth $25? Not in my opinion.
The positives? It has a great strong magnet. Easy to clean if I needed to, but I don't see the need unless it got incredibly nasty.

I also like to strain the residual liquids out via a fine mesh net before feeding the food to the tank... but once in a while I do add the liquids along with the food as they have value.
