What is the expiration date? i just started a new tank and don't know how long a bag will last. 4 clowns and a cuc, currently.

Since I am not the one selling this food I can’t tell you the expiration date but I will tell you from experience to only feed once a day and only what they can consume it two minutes, otherwise you will have algae problems.

How large are the pellets?

Quite small I'd say. My scooter blenny will eat them quite readily, really chows down on them as a matter of fact. They are a bit flattish and sink slower than some other brands of pellets, I prefer them for that reason. All of my small fish eat them readily, with the exception of my Madarin who only eats frozen and live. Darts, clowns, goby blenny, etc.

Can firefish and royal grammas eat these? I'm trying not to go with frozen food because it's too much of a hastle with the freezer, thawing, etc.

My dartfiah love it, can't tell you about the gramma though. Don't totally rule out frozen food. Even if you don't want to feed it all the time every other day or so when you have time would be a good thing. I use PE mysis and LRS reef frenzy.
