    I ordered some Reef Chili and got it today from bulk reef. I wanted to see what all the hype was about, and wow! All my corals opened up as soon as I fed the tank. I started with a very small amount, about half of what's recommended, and the corals loved it.
    It says on the bottle that this is an all in one coral food, is this legit? Could it provide all the necessary nutrients for corals to thrive, or do you still recommend stacking it with other goodies?
    A little pricey for a 1.5 oz jar, but then again, it goes a really long ways!

    Coral Frenzzy goes further.

    I have been using it for about a year and have been happy with it. The directions say to mix it with tank water. Sometimes I am too lazy and will just give a scoopful stright into my tank. The water is turbulent enough that the little that floats on the top (fish love it too!) ends up getting mixed in pretty well. Saves me time, and there is less to think about that way for me. If you ever want to see great polyp extension, especially on those LPS and NPS, feed this to your tank and come back after about 5-10 minutes. As far as I can tell, it's good stuff.

    Cost per ounce seems to be exactly the same, unless there is some super deal that I am unaware of?

    I got that stuff too, but I get a better reaction out of my corals with the reef chili so far.

    I have been using Coral Frenzy, but debating Reef Chili, so this is interesting to hear.
    Anybody else have experience with both?

    I have both pretty simular, except coral frenzy has what seems like little pellets and reef chilli is all powder.

    I mix the two and get great results. Acans get super puffed out. Fish like to suck on my baster like a baby bottle.
