Anyone here ever use Coral Heaven complete polyp food from IPSF?

I'm trying to decide on a pump for my ca reactor, between a mag 5 or a
gen x-2400
any suggestions?

Good News!
Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this
life has ended?

I have just brought home two new peppermint shrimp to eat some of these
*&%^$# aptaisia's, but on looking closely, one of them is LOADED with eggs.
I realize that it may be too late now for this brood, but I am definitely
interested in trying to breed these little devils.  I have ...

I have recently won a battle with a terrible purple cyanoslime and I believe
my hair algae is beaten almost to the breaking point (thanks in part to this
site for both of those little triumphs).  But now, I'm back to my original

Not trying to cause a big debate or anything, but I am trying to decide
whether to get rid of most of my sandbed. I recently had a slip of a
powerhead dig a hole in my DSB and after having a stable tank now I have GHA
and Cyano problems. I have talked to some people about just going ...

Recently I was looking into my 'fuge pondering whether my inability to
keep macro alive was a good thing or a bad thing, when I noticed
hundreds of tiny arms waving at me... some brittle stars must have
spawned as I've got hundreds of tiny baby ones.

Are these a reasonable alternative to the Tunze pumps?  They are a
