    I've pretty much never rinsed frozen food off - ever. Just never made sense to me to do that, even though I heard many times from others that it needs to be rinsed. I was actually surprised when you said you didn't rinse it either.
    Really nice tank.

    My fav coral to feed was my orange plate...it reminded me a bit of an upside down starfish...if you put food near the outside of the plate, it would pass the the food from tentacle to tentacle until it made its way into the middle mouth. I would often hand feed it by just reaching in with a chunk of squid or shrimp and hand it off and watch it do its thing.

  • @YouLoveRyanSeacrest

    I've found that not rinsing food on smaller systems works alright (works totally fine on my 37 gallon cube) but on my 150 gallon system I absolutely would not recommend feeding unrinsed mysis or frozen food of any kind. Not because of the additional nutrients but because when feeding larger quantities of frozen food, the oils from the shrimp cause the skimmer to shut down for several hours (usually around 4-5). This can cause some serious algae outbreak problems in the long run, especially if you feed every day. In my experience you're better off feeding rinsed mysis / frozen blend, and then feeding the corals with Reef Roids and maybe some live phyto which should be more than sufficient for both your softies and LPS/SPS.

    if you’re saying not to defrost the food as rinsing... then i rinse because there the moisture that has been absorbed to freeze the food is helpful to keep it frozen. then all i need to do is strain it. i’ll try the reef roid & fuel mix
