Dosing zoas/palys

[Dragonreef202]

Was wondering what people dose their tanks. I use kent liquid calcium, microvert. I have never direct feeded any of my Zoas or palys.

I dose Seachems Reef Plus and Reef Trace and feed Live Phyto and Prime reef every other day

I tried feeding DT's phyto for a solid month...all the corals seemed very happy with it. I target fed each and every one. now im gonna experiment with some other stuff and see what i like better

I've read where Zoa's (don't know if it was a certain TYPE or not) responded greedily to sea urchin eggs, in Eric Borneman's book: Aquarium Corals.

I've been spot feeding fauna Marin zoa powder for a month or so. Great response so far. Color and growth

I may start to target feed and see what will happen over time.

I just got some yesterday myself. What is your feeding technique and schedule? Thanks.

I put a few pinches of the powder in tank water and let it sit for a min or two. Then I dust the colonies with the mixture. I do this 2-3 times a week

Suprisingly even the small zoas eat that stuff too. I was really shocked.

Im going to start vitamin c soon, I heard good things about growth from it.

I've found the best feeding response is an hour after the "dawn" lights come on(just blues).when the daylights are on it's more of a reaction than a true feeding(zoas). palys will eat all day:canada:

I do fauna zoafood with flow off. Great color and growth!

 

[Dragonreef202]

I feed them three times per week or unless otherwise instructed by the products I have.
