I'm curious to learn how often and what people feed their corals specifically. I'm keeping mainly zoas, ricordia, and a few photosynthetic gorgonians; few LPS and SPS as well, so primarily interested in these ~ but please feel free to share. Please include info on specific supplements you use as well.

thanks
 
When I do target feed I usually will feed my lps a variety. LPS will get flake, frozen, and cyclopeeze. Zoas and palys I never feed. Anything with feeder tentacles I will spot feed on the occasion.
 
i feed my corals every three days. my lps usually get a mix of rods food, oyster feast and arcti-pods. i also spot feed my zoos/palys some of the oyster feast and cyclopeze mix at the moment. some seem to take it, some dont.
 
I don't spot feed zoas, sps, or clams. I feed just about everything else though. I make my own food, consisting of mysis, cyclo, fresh whole shrimp, clams, scallops, and this last time I used Tilapia(which I have now learned should be excluded next time.) I feed all my lps this mixture, usually once or twice a week. I do water changes every 5 days, so I feed pretty heavily. The sps, zoas, and clam just get whatever is left in the water column.

Edit-forgot to mention I also soak the food in Seachem's Vitality before feeding. It is said to have Vitamin C and amino acids.
