It is a pack of foil sealed cubes that I left on the counter after feeding some corals late last night.
I threw it in the freezer early this morning. It it a bad idea to use it?

I'm not sure. My wife gets up really early and she saw it and threw it in the freezer.It was in the cardboard sleeve so she wasn't sure.
At least the house was pretty cold last night.

If it was thawed out and you refroze it it will turn to mush when you thaw and try and use it. If it was still froze should be now problem.
I got a pack at a LFS and it thawed out on the trip home so I just stuck it in the freezer and it was mush when I tried to use it!!

Must be an apidemic. My son left a new package of rods on top of the biocube. The heat from the lights made it thaw fast. I threw it away. $20 not worth the risk

Well, I thawed some out and it looked and smelled just like it normally does.I gave a little to the fish and they ate it and are still swimming. :D
I'm gonna have to be more careful.
