Beth, an ideas on that food inquiry?

[agkistrodo]

Well has the laundry list as usual, but one of the lesser (at the end) is copper sulphate, and ferrous sulfate.
There are others it seems who have been using this food without knowing it had copper in it to include people with shrimp and the shrimp eat it...

Beth, do you know anything about that New Life Spectrum THERA+A food and safety with invers?

No, I haven't heard of it....but food should be generally safe for all creatures. What are the ingredients?

Good reason to go fresh foods, imo. I don't like the packaged food basically because of the nitrates.
While copper, of course, is a natural element, in the closed system, dosing with added copper will have an accumulative effect. Obviously, copper is not desirable in a reef tank.
