Doing my own coral feeding mix today i rant out of Reef-Roids and was wondering if i could substitute with spirulina powder. It would seem so. But i digged a bit deeper to make sure and found some interesting stuff that i'm sharing.

Ingredients:
Unlike many other "coral foods" on the market, Reef-roids is NOT made with processed fish meals or other
ingredients that can rapidly degrade water quality. Reef-roids is a mixture of naturally occurring marine planktons including a specific species of zooplankton that is unique to our product.
Prairies Spirulina
These tiny, single-celled fresh-water
micro algae contain an impressive 60% protein content! This
lean & green protein source is also a natural source of minerals,
including iron, calcium, and magnesium. Its high levels of B12
and protein make it the perfect addition to the diets of
vegetarians. Spirulina is endowed with all the essential amino
acids) and essential fats, along with complex carbohydrates,
fibre, a wide range of vitamins and minerals including
antioxidants, carotenoids (especially lutein) and nucleic acids.
Researchers have found that spirulina intake reduces blood
cholesterol and inflammation. Regular supplementation with
spirulina also removes accumulated toxins in the body, creating
a gentle and safe daily cleansing effect.
