I got a pipette from my LFS to clean my rocks and wanted to also try and target feed my frogspawn. I was going to try a concentrate of cyclop-eez and marine cusine which is brine, mysis, and krill. Any advice?
 
I would stick with the bigger items like marine cuisine, but turn down (or off) your flow to allow the frogspawn heads to close on the food. Cyclop-eeze is to fine for my frogspawn so I don't even bother with that.

Two other techniques I use for feeding.

Instead of feeding the frogspawn, I feed my fish over my frogspawn. That way whatever they don't eat drops down and is caught by the frogspawn.

Second, I use small sinking pellets and just drop them on the frogspawn. You could even use that pipette to focus your approach better.
 
I just tried the pipette with the marine cusine and it loved it!! All nine heads closed up. I like the idea about feeding the fish over the frogspawn. The only fish I have are a pair of mated clowns and they just haven't taken to the frogspawn yet. Maybe that would help?
 
I feed my frowspawn with just about anything... if it sticks, it usually gets consumed assuming it is a proper size.
