So, I bought this pretty little Scolymia a few days ago. I tried feeding it some mixed pellet food this afternoon, and it actually opened up and began taking the food.
A couple hours later, I notice it expelling what looks like the clumped pellets I fed. Not entirely sure. Perhaps, I fed too much for it to digest properly? Maybe he just didn't like the food? Or he's just expelling waste..?

Any information appreciated. [emoji108]

It's spitting out the pellet food. It's no good. Poop is loooong and stringy ;)
 
Probably didn't like it....
Also, it's better to feed scolys at night after the lights go out
 
I sometimes target feed some vitamin enriched mysis shrimp or LRS while I'm feeding my fish.
That's what I was considering. Do you buy it already enriched? Or do you let it soak in something? I'm motivated to make sure it never becomes deficient it anything.

I usually thaw and soak frozen food in garlic guard or the AquaForest fish vitamins for a few minutes before feeding my fish. I usually target feed my LPS the same fish food a couple times a week or when I think to.

I also target feed once or sometimes twice a week. I usually fed a mix of pellets and frozen mysis. Most of my coral will take the pellets except for a blasto and a couple mushrooms unless I do the mix.
