I have been using NLS for a couple years. It seems to always be good quality.

In the opening post.....When you click this link.( http://stream01.pixelfish.com/newlif...s&browser=MSIE )
...and it goes to load the video....on the right of the video is another link which is supposed to take you to NLS website....but when you click on it the address comes up as nis and not nls.....

Try it and you will see what I mean....so now you can fix it or contact them to fix it...

The NLS lg fish formula is one that was recommended to me and my SW fish hate it, my snails love it though. Even my plate coral that eats everything I feed the fish, till now, spit it all out. Any recommendations would be appreciated except starving.

I'd love some tips on encouraging a copperbanded butterfly to try some. Just won't touch the stuff, I've tried not feeding him anything for several days, I've tried soaking the pellets in clam juice, I've tried both the marine NLS and the marine "finicky fish" NLS .. no go.

I only use the 1mm pellets not the 3mm ... I find the 1mm is best, even for the fish up to and over 12-15" or so. I just had a shipment of fish come in last week, I didn't feed them for two days after arrival, when I did start feeding, only one fish from the shipment didn't eat. He wouldn't eat a bite for about a week, I figured he might starve... I fed the group tonight, and he was gobbling the NLS down. Be patient, they will take to it.

Hmmmm, unfortunately he hasn't and it's been about 18 months now. Just doesn't touch the stuff. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see this fish take to it, but apparently he is stronger willed than your fish

All my fish, Powder Blue, Achilles, Yellow, Hippo, Purple, and Powder Brown/Gold Rim tangs eat it.

My Potters, Lemon Peels, Coral Beauty, and even Rock Beauty eat it.

Both the Auratus & new Heniochus Butterflies eat it. I don't think my Copperband ate it because it mostly ate Aiptasia & bloodworms before it died.

I also use the 1mm pellets (Spectrum Thera+ and Marine Fish Formula). My one concern is that it sometimes floats a little before sinking although with Chin's new maxi-jet mods, there's so much surface agitation the pellets sink & shoot around the tank immediately
