Snrub, I've been thinking along the same lines. I started with Optimal for couple years, but have switched to AM MVP due to cost, storage, and supply. I was completely satisfied with the quality of Optimal, and if I was feeding smaller scale I would probably still be using Optimal. I'm feeding about 2000# a year.

I haven't really noticed any difference in growth, plant or algae growth since my switch to AM. Although, it is really hard to see slight changes, and my fish class sizes are so much different than they were 3 years ago. Ponds are always evolving, so there is that factor as well.

I heard Bob say Aquamax is doing some growth studies this year as well, so it will be interesting to see how those results compare to other test.
