    Cody Johnson will be bringing the squid for me as I have been informed of granddaughters first dance recital taking place the same day...sorry! I was also unable to find octopus...I'm sure the fish food will turn out fine without it! Hope everyone has fun!

    Chlora, any chance you know any Brokaws near the Stronghurst/Raritan area? My wife was a Brokaw, and most of her family lives out your way. I grew up in Kirkwood, but we live near Cedar Rapids now.

    Sorry, no I do not know any of them. We moved here from Waterloo 7 years ago so do not know a lot of people. I have actually meet more in the area due to getting this region started, lol.

    I will feed some to mine later tonight. Had such a great time today. All the food from the pot luck was yummy and I think for just making up our own recipe for the fish food we did pretty good. Thanks to Cindy there is a picture posted on our Facebook group page.

    I just feed my fish the food we made and it was like a frenzy in my tank. I have never seen my fish go so nuts over food like this before. They loved it. Wish I had kept all the dry food stuff Roger brought so I could write down the brands and how much of each we put in. LOL!
