The krill is processed first in a meat grinder, which turns it into a powder. Then the beef heart is ground twice. I then add the powdered krill and the vitamins to the beef heart. I then mix it all together adding water to soften the texture, and then I run it through the meat grinder one more time. I then flatten it out in a zip lock bagy to not more than a 1/4 inch and than I freeze it. After it has been frozen for 24 hours I remove a bag from the freezer and process it through a Salad Shooter for the small discus and then refreeze.

Since I started adding krill to the beef heart mix, I've noticed an explosion in growth. One fish that I thought would end up as runt, and was about to be given away, has had very noticeable increase in size and can no longer be considered a runt.
