Reef Roids for Feather Duster?

[Baby Ray]

Are Reef Roids a sufficient food supply for a feather duster? Could you target feed it or would you have to broadcast feed?

No need to target feed them. I usually broadcast feed my tank. They will pick up particles from the water.

Broadcast feeding is fine just remove filter sock or floss for a few hours. I use RR twice a week this way in my 200 gal reef tank thx

Ok, thank you! I just wanted to make sure that RR's were sufficient food for a feather duster.

Yes that’s all I use in my 3 tanks and it’s great just don’t overdue amount as it can mess up water parameters . See some pics. It works lol .

Thx

Beautiful! How much should I dose? I have a 29 gallon tank with a 20 gallon sum.

While reef roids is probably fine for them, I'm a big fan of @Reef Nutrition and use Phyto Feast and Oyster Feast to broadcast feed my filter feeders. I have a feather duster, a coco worm, and a flame scallop that all rely on filter feeding. You can see the coco worm and feather duster in the bottom right of the picture below.
