Update 3/27/09: PLEASE PICK UP:
Hi everyone:
my mom and I just got done putting everything together. We've been at it all day to make sure it stays fresh without delay. it's already in the freezer so it is ready. please pick up at your earliest convenience because my mom is begging for her freezer space back since i've hi-jacked it for the last couple of weeks haha.
My schedule is flexible, but please let me know when to expect you so i'll be home. if you want to see the tank, best is 6pm-8pm, otherwise, anytime 10am-10pm.
Availability: Sunday: 1pm-whenever.
Monday+: 10-10

The rest is original post:
So I'm out of food and I need to make some for my own tank. One-Time order
- It will be a SUPER concoction: combining all the best ideas from many DIY fish food threads, including http://www.melevsreef.com/food.html
- This will get to be very expensive cuz I'm going to be using the most premium and organic ingredients, so I want to split the cost.
- Most ingredients will be name-brand: Hikari, Ocean Nutrition, H20, Kent, San Francisco. , vitamins & supplements, fresh seafoods............over $300 in value
- I will try to included as many items listed below as possible, depending on availability and reasonable budget. Exact list of ingredients used will be available upon pick up
- The more people, the more funding to get more variety in the mix.
About the process
- The whole process will be given special care, as I will be using the end product too.
- Any frozen item will be thawed and rinsed under RO water to clear any contaminants
- Processed into various sizes: half about bite-size for fish, and half is fine-size for corals. mixed together. PERFECT for target feeding! FEED EVERYTHING AT ONCE!
- i have invested in the most durable ZipLock bags available -made for freezers, double-zip. it will keep air out and avoid freeze-burns. other than that, it will last you pretty much forever.
- Personal thanks to Ben, Vinny, Marc (Melev), and everyone that popped up during my research.
- sample of how food will be handled, processed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMFDjkKldjo
Payment
- I'm asking only $10 for a pack of ziplock bag 8x8”. If i haven't met you, but also preferred for all, please prepay 10.61 to tkh619@yahoo.com to cover paypal fee.
- or $15 for a ziplock size bag 11x11" (1 gallon size bag). paypal is $15.76
- you can dice the bag to whatever size you need.
- multiple packs welcomed.
- Please have Name, phone #, and order in "comments" in paypal.
Pick Up location & Time:
