Does anyone know of any flakes or pellets that do not use ethoxyquin as a preservative? So far of what I have on hand, only the NLS pellets are not showing ethoxyquin.

I feed mainly frozen & the fish do enjoy clam frenzy so that is just as much for them as the corals. I'm looking to keep the diet balanced & was soaking pellets & flakes in selcon or fish oil.

I've worked at a vet & seen what "bad" preservatives do to animals. BHA, BHT, & ethoxyquin are known to cause cancer & I'd like to keep it out of my fish too.
