I won this reef nutrition kit at MACNA and am not sure on how to use it. If I followed the directions on the bottle it would be dosing about 2 teaspoons a day but I don't think I should be doing that with everyone of these every day. Should I leave most of them sealed and just use one at time or should I mix a couple together every day? Any suggestions would help. I have a 40 gallon breeder with a 20 gallon sump. I don't want them to go bad.

I would use what is relevant to your inhabitants.
I read the labels and those bottles cover a lot of different things :-)
 
The tigger pods are alive. I would put the whole bottle in your tank or fuge. You can dose a little phyto every couple of days.

You can get some shrimp, clams and other seafood blend everything together, freeze ot and make your own all in one type reef food.
 
Yes the pods I already put in the refugium and will use the phyto to feed them. That's a good idea to mix the rest together and freeze them. Thanks all for the reply.
 
Congratulations on winning our sample pack! Our customers typically use Oyster-Feast and Phyto-Feast daily, being very conservative at first. You can alternate the other products from day to day. Do not freeze the products please: they are meant to be refrigerated; freezing can damage the product as well as the brown algae in the Phyto-Feast. Glad to hear that you already put the Tigger-Pods in.
 
I dose both phytofeast aND oysterfeast daily. Oysterfeast helped improve the color of my sps more than any other food I've tried so far. Phytofeast increased my pod population noticeably as well.

Most people start at half dose and observe before moving up to the full dosage. I dose phytofeast in the morning and oysterfeast as my lights ramp down. The feeders I get from my sps are insane now! Might be best for you to add phytofeast to you fuge where the pods are.

I haven't tried the roti or roe yet. Update how your tank responds if you can. Congrats on the win!
 
I won these at MACNA last year in DC. My corals are hooked on oyster feast and fish love the roe. Thanks Reef Nutrition you have a customer for life.

LOL I'm a little embarrassed! I didn't realize that your post was from LAST YEAR. Please accept my apologies; I'm going to go bang my head against a wall now. :) Glad to hear that the quality of our products equates to happy fish and corals. Thanks so much for supporting us!
