I go to no frills or T&T and they sell a frozen product called Seafood Medley. In this package is shrimp, squid/octopus, scallops, oysters, fish etc. The package itself is Approx. $3. I buy 2 or 3 at a time but only prepare one package every 2-3 weeks as needed. I bought a little salsa/ food processor for about $15. I take out the frozen package and place it in the sink for the day to thaw. That night I slowly put in processor and chop it up to the consistency I want. I also add mashed garlic to the mix. I then place in ice cube tays I bought at dollarama and usually get about 3 trays full. I feed them one of these cubes per day. Holding the cube in the tank and slowly thawing chunks off. I do also feed algae grazer fish pellets and some flake whenever I feel like it. Also put one sheet of Nori on a clip daily for the grazers. All the fish love the home made mash.
