Anyone want to make some easy coral food? Try this.

I am using freeze dried brine, high quality pellet and ORA Glow and placed it in my small coffee grinder and turned it into powder. I then placed a 2 tablespoons of it in a small watter bottle added RO water shook and placed it into my 55 gallon tank. My corals devoured it. It made the tank a little cloudy for a bit and then I turned back on my Protein Skimmer and it didnt seem to affect water quality that much, skimmed a little more than usual. My Xenia after ding this for 2 days have opened up more and pulse more often. I will add more as I see it happen.

I store the extra in the fridge and it seems to keep well. I add this 3 times a week and Ithe soft corals eat this stuff up. Just after I add it all their polyps squeeze close with food in them. I have taken down my protein skimmer and the Xenia are getting much bigger now. Prolly due to low organic load. I am using my pump from the PS to help circulate the tank!
