I do. I base my recipe off pappone from the Blu Coral Method (most popular in Italy.)

Is there no one else that makes their own food? Shocked At one time it was almost a necessity for the serious hobbyist because the commercially available foods were limited.

It seems like more and more hobbyists are feeding just dry foods. This is unfortunate. Although the dry products claim to provide nutrition and enhance color, it's all just marketing hype. A clear example of the difference is the rescued clownfish I'm currently caring for. They were fed pellets. Their color was extremely drab a few weeks ago. Feeding a variety of frozen meaty and algae foods has made them beautiful and colorful.

The upcoming meeting is all about the advantages of homemade food. If it's like last time, there will be Free Samples for everyone and larger packages for sale.  Clap
