Can anyone tell me if its normal for my brain to have its feeders out with lights fully on
Iv had it for well over 6months and it just feeds at night
The last 2 days it's been like it is in the pics, can't be wanting more food I feed it nearly every 2 nights , it eats lots of different things as well

Thanks

Not sure if it is normal or not, but I've have had mine for about 2 months and its feeders are out more times than not during the day.
 
Being that the coral looks great I wouldn't worry about it too much. Assuming your lighting is sufficient the coral really doesn't need to be fed at all IME.

Thanks cloak
Yes lighting is good I run a v2ilumenair , I forget what Number it is but it's the best one they do
I get good growth on the sand bed
Here's my over tracky

I know mine like to put out his feeding tentacles whenever he senses food in the water column. Any time I feed my fish or even clean my glass he is out and ready to eat. I think it is normal behavior for these guys.
 
Mine does the same thing, especially when I'm feeding the tank. Think it's just asking for some meaty goodness.
