Cyclop-eeze...halfsies with anyone?
 
So, I'm interested in buying some cylop-eeze, but not interested in paying $45 or whatever for it, for what would no doubt last me years and years. Would anyone in Calgary be interested in splitting a package of it with me?

I'd be interested. PM me some details

I would too if the offer is still on the table.

Are you still interested in doing this ?

Hey...Ande & Danny...I'm still interested in doing this. I'll buy a package from Gold and then we can figure it out from there. I'm sure we can split it three ways. If I remember correctly, a package of it is $45-50.

Hey guys...I just got back from Gold, and they didn't have any bigger packages of Cyclopeeze for sale, so I just bought a smaller one for myself ($20). Would have liked to split a bigger pacakage...alas...

I just tried those frozen sticks of Cyclopeese from Golds too. It sinks a lot easier and faster than the big cans of freeze dried.

This is my first time using Cyclopeeze. How much do you feed (and how big is your tank/what are you feeding, etc)?

The freeze dried is a joke. It would always float for me even after soaking for days beforehand in the fridge. Frozen is the way to go. And if you can buy them in quantities less than 20 lbs at a time, sounds like a slam dunk to me. I've still got about 19 lbs of the 20 lbs I bought last year and I feed a cube into all 3 of my tanks anywhere from daily to once per week.

Anyhow Drew, in answer to your question, I chop mine up into chunks about 3/4 to 1cm square. That's still a lot of food but the fish just love it. I think the only thing I have that doesn't go beserk for it is my CBB who eats only mysis or the live clams/oysters/mussels I buy for him. Even my carpet anemones show an excited feeding response from the frozen cyclopseeze.

Hope this helps.
