paste food

I was looking for some paste food. Eastern Nishikigoi carries Izeki Ultra F-DX. There is also Izeki Ultra F which is must less expensive. I cannot find anyone else that carries Izeki, Mazuri or Kusuri paste foods in the US. Anybody know?

Thanks

Mike

Ultra F is about 35% cheaper but not available anywhere that I know of. Its slightly to early in the season for most to stock I think.

Izeki is pretty much hard to import, plus not alot of high end hobbyist buying it because of the cost. So when there is a chance to get it, get it.

Can't import Kusuri

We've tried to get it in, but APHIS shoots it down because of mad cow disease. They require all ingredients to come from facilities that have been inspected by a 'certified' inspector (something that doesn't exist in all of the countries imported from) as well as an inspection of the facilities in the UK where the product is formulated and packaged. AMAZINGLY HARD TO DO!

Try some of the powders and pastes, you can get some great little goodies that just need mixing with some egg white, or albumen powder and water to form a paste

A fraction of the cost and you can work out protein / amino acid contents accurately
