I pick it up, since I wanted to give myself a break from BBS and I wanted to try it out.
I started feeding my frys at week 4 with it. They took to it without problems. I like the convenience, since like the rest of the world I have a job.
I'd like to hear other expericence with it. Also When do you start using it ?
Thanks
Fred

I have never used Atison's stuff but I would be willing to try. Are Atison stuff available in stores or would it have to be specialty ordered? I hear good things about all his products.

My fry like it. I use it when I convert from live to dry as they seem to take to it really fast.

My guys love all their products. You can get it from IBC sales, too. I usually place a order just before I go to the US on vacation and have it delivered to my hotel. Saves on shipping. I have a friend going down in the next two weeks and she will be getting an order for me. If Kim is low on what you are looking for let me know and I will include it in my order. Catherine
One of the advantages of being a IBC member it is cheaper for members than none members. Just check it out on the IBC sales site.

I Got it from IBC sales,
Shipping, well it wouldn't make sense just to order it by itself, I group my order, I got a 75gr of Betta pro and Betta food plus a can of Brine Shrimp eggs...

When I order from IBC, I buy $150-250 worth of stuff just to have to make shipping worthwhile.

I bought mine from Aquabid, it was cheaper. Petsmart actually sells Atison stuff, but only in the states right now I think

I don't find it necessary to use Atison's starter. I find that Atisons pro can crush to a size similar to Atisons starter using a mortar and pestil or a rolling pin. This is quick and easy for me, and more economical than buying different sizes of food. I usually buy Atisons Pro in the large bag size, and feed it to all sizes of fish. I start feeding it crushed to 3 week old fry, and by ~6 weeks I am feeding it whole. I'm not sure what the difference is nutritionally, but because Pro is relatively low in protein, I suppliment their diet with BBS and other brands of crushed pellets just to be safe.
