I will break it down further:
2 oz packet costs $7. This will make approximately 1 lb of food when reconstituted (I can feed about 100 tanks with this amount).
4 oz packet $10 and makes approximately 2 lb of food
8 oz packet $18 and makes approximately 4lb of food
16 oz packet $28 and makes approximately 8 lb of food
64 oz packet = $60 = and makes approximately 32 lb of food
The typical ratio is 1:3, powder to water. The reconstituted amount (I have it listed in lbs) is how you would compare cost breakdown to a pelleted or flake food.
