Great. Nice lights and they do ones for a 12" and 24" tank.
But typically I need one for a 18" long tank! Worse luck.

Lots of individuals seem to be buying large amounts of trade fish food and 
sell it in small packets. So it works out cheaper for the private aquarist.

In the UK the Government is said to be thinking of adding a eBay Tax...
eBay *is* very popular over here.

I just bought a 200g bag of Tetra PRO colour fish food for £3.
