ORA Glo Fish Food Review

  If you find yourself frequenting online reef aquarium forums you may hear the name ORA allot.  Ora is the largest producer and manufacturer of marine ornamentals in the world  which produces stunning aquacultured saltwater fish, invertebrates and live aquarium foods for the marine hobby.  ORA stands for Oceans, Reefs & Aquariums and is a Florida based company.

  ORA Glo fish food is what I use as a staple diet for my reef inhabitants.  The reason I prefer this food over all other Fish food pellets is its high percentage in proteins, it contains a whopping 48% and if you compare it to Ocean Nuitriton fish food at 35% you can see why I feed ORA Glo on a constant basis.

 ORA Glo comes in two different size packs a 1oz pack and a 4oz pack.  I have been using a 1oz pack and it has fed my three fish for nearly a year now.  The pellet size is perfect for clownfish, however my small damsel makes quick work of these as well.  The pellets are slow sinking, giving the fish time to eat every little morsel.  A 1oz package costs in the $2.50-$4.00 range and its zipper seal keeps this product fresh.

Ocean Nutrition Nano Reef Fish Food Review

Nano Reef Fish Food - 15 g

  With my last online order I decided to pick up some different food for my saltwater tank.  I saw that Ocean Nutrition Nano Reef Fish food was on sale and I had not tried this brand yet. 

 Ocean Nutrition Nano Reef Fish Food is a small soft pellet fish food that supposedly enhances the natural and boosts the fishes immune system. I went with a smaller pellet because I wanted to see if some of my zoa’s and large stony polped corals would take to it and naturally I have smaller saltwater fish.

  My first impression is that this “slow sinking” pellet is not so slow sinking at all. In fact it sinks very fast.  The pellet is extremely small so you have to use a small spoon (included) to feed your tank with.  When you use the spoon you can get a decent amount of pellets and you basically need to so that the fish can see it.  If you choose to use this product make sure that you have a decent clean up crew or a bottom dwelling fish so that they can clean up the ones your other fish miss.

 The food is composed of Vitamins, Marine Protein (fish meal, squid meal, krill meal and tuna row), spirulina, Kelp and garlic.  It comes in a small bottle (15grams) and is around the $3 range, which is very affordable. 

  I would recommend this fish food for reef keepers with smaller tanks that have smaller fish.  I currently alternate my fish foods that I feed so that I can make sure that my fish are eating variety.
