How about a snackable cookie that we can eat, and then share some with the fish...LOL...kidd'n....

It's remarkable what you've done with the 'Frenzy' line itself.....all the varieties...I can't even remember em all.....that's the first thing that I look for at your swap table....what's the 'mad' food scientist got now....LOL....I think that I've tried em all....even the 'egg-foo-yung'....creative genius at work.... .....great stuff..

that being said.....just for grins, could you color the pellets?red/orange?....  and do an angel/discus/cichlid type food....or are the pellets already made with that in mind?...I know my larger angels try to snack on em when I toss em in.....

( I put it down here to continue the subject)

LOL  I did try a cookie type food. I called them Cory-Os. Out of production due to the huge labor intensity.

There's no coloring added to any of the foods. The green ones are green because of the algae and sea weed content. Maybe I could try a Red - Green combination. Hmmm. . . . . . I could use natural ingredients for red color . . . . . .  Gotta call it something besides "Red - Green" though so I don't get sued for copyright infringing. LOL again.

Beef Heart Frenzy was created to condition all types of cichlids. Mostly Angels and Discus. I keep a few Honduran Red Points around to experiment with. They eat all the pellets and Frenzy varieties.

"Cory-O's"......LOL....I like it...thanks for the reply....and yes, almost all the frenzy and pellets get eaten here by somebody here...(not me :o)....it's an aptly named product, that's for sure....

I'm working with the "Red - Green" idea.

Okay, a little of the red coating comes off on your hand when you feed it. So, if you don't mind red hands, it's a done deal. The red coating has huge amounts of beta-carotene and vitamin A. I can try to perfect the recipe to make the coating stick, but for now the fish are going nuts for it. Maybe I should leave it alone.

When I first showed it to my wife she asked what the red stuff was. I said " It's a long story".
