You may have remembered me posting a while back (Novemberish I think) regarding H2O Life frozen foods coming to Drs. Foster & Smith. I had emailed the H2O Life site asking about where I could find them, and they said it was coming soon (they said in about 2 months, would make that about end of Jan) to Drs Foster & Smith. I waited and waited and checked at least once a week to see if they came in yet.

The guy that started it is Chris Turk, the guy who was the CEO or whatever of Ocean Nutrition, a marine biologist. This H2O Life is his new company. It looks pretty good, no gel binders or crap that fish don't need. Many of my fish won't pick at things from the bottom and will only hit stuff floating in the water column, so anything with a gel binder is out for me. Also, the krill is individually frozen, so you should be able to just break off the one or 2 that you need and keep the rest frozen. That's why I hated flat packs, could never break off the right amount!

I ordered a few different kinds, including clam on half shell and mussel on half shell (have a figure 8 puffer) but nothing in a flat pack like krill (think he has some in cubes but not sure). I had to limit my order a bit 'cause money's tight and I figured I could always try theirs some other time. It's supposed to come in tomorrow! :dance:

Yay! It came! Heh, I wrote the wrong products in my earlier post though. It was mussel on half shell and scallops on half shell. I also got the bloodworms loose cubes and the spirulina shrimp mix (brine, mysis, and pink shrimp mixed with Spirulina and Chlorella phytoplankton algae). I also got SFBB's Freshwater Frenzy.

Schnitzel, my figure 8 puffer, loved the scallop I offered. I still have some open packages of other foods, so I won't be able to try the spirulina shrimp mix or blood worms yet, but they look great! Oh, and the packages are resealable. I totally should've ordered the krill and squid flat packs. One of the biggest reasons I hate flat packs is that I can't close them back up. I have only 2 tanks (plus 1 planted only tank, might get betta for that later), so it takes me a while to go through a whole pack, especially since I feed a wide variety.
