I agreed with you Gary that Aquarian was one of the best flake foods
available and their fry food was great. I used to feed all my fry on that
brand. The same thing happened over here. You cant get it any longer in the
aquarium trade but I think its being sold in the supermarkets under a brand
name that's being repackaged out here in Oz. However, they only sell
tropical and goldfish not any of their other range and only in small tins.
