What do you use to spot feed?

What is this, "spot feed" you speak of? On a serious note, I don't keep anything that would require it.
 
Is this a DIY or what brand it is?
Got it from Marine Depot.. $8.99

I spot fed for the first time today, I focused a lot on the frogspawn and even dropped a few pellets in him. They loved it and I think the response will be great. I fed Kent microvert mixed with liquid phytoplankton and liquid coral food
 
I spot feed once per week and pour into flow twice per week
 
I made a glass one. 10mmtube, slightly tapered on one end and the other end pulled down so some airline tubing hooks up, that is connected to a 10ml syringe. Works great! Just don't drop it

I'll snap a pic if i think about it
 
My setup is a little ghetto. I only spot feed corals on the sand bed so I have the lid I cut off a two liter coke bottle. Drilled a hole in the lid and ran a piece of air tubing into it. I take the half cake bottle and place it over my coral so that it covers the coral completely and no fish can steal the food. Then I put a syringe on the air line that’s now outside the water and use it to inject whatever I feel like feeding down to my wellso/micromussa/acans :)

Cool idea
 
It is simple, effective, and cheap as all get out... I might have to modify with the KMench cone...
I was just thinking the hard wand would be a nice touch to avoid having to stick your arm in like I do currently.
