I feed either reef roids, fauna marin pellets, or full spectrum pellets. Seems to help speed up growth. =)

I feed nothing more then mysis/baby brine and zoo plakton. I thaw out the brine when i get it and drain all the water off of it and add 25 ml of zooplankton and refreeze and 2-3 times a week just pull out a pinch and thaw it in tank water and feed 4 times through out the day with a baster and it has been working great since day one for my lps/sps

Do you Spot feed corals these eggs? I've seen this in stores but i've never grabbed any.

When you do this type of feeding I wonder, Does the Zoo plankton get absorbed into the Brine/Mysis so the fish are getting that food as well?

I usually feed reef roids like once a week. I alternate every week with the fauna marin zoa powder and spot feed. Be careful with using both cuz it can foul up your tank pretty fast. I used to feed my chalices and acans pretty often with the full spectrum pellets but haven't had too much time to do so lately. But mine love em!

What would foul the water quick? Did you mean Reef Roids and Coral Frenzy? And The Acans loved Spectrum but the Chalices didn't really go for it.

Reef Chili and Oyster Feast for me. I usually feed my corals once a week. Typically, I feed the fish first (Rod's Original), which gets the corals active, and about 20 minutes later I target feed the corals.

Yea the roids if you don't measure it out properly. Just follow the directions and you should be good. Kinda a pain to hand feed my chalices with the pellets. But it's worth it with the growth I'm getting. Don't think I can do it once I upgrade. Aha. It's pretty easy in my cube to do right now.

That's a Good Plan.. I always try to get the corals excited before shoving food in their faces.. Oyster seems to do it. For some reason though only Spectrum Pellets and Arcti Pods get the Scoly's excited..

Good to know! That's what I'm saying too.. I have my corals in a 29 right now. Makes for very easy feedings, once I setup up my 120 its going to be a more difficult I assume.. But it will be worth it because as of now.. I'm out of Room!!

 

[Alf]

Your telling me! My 29 is packed as you've seen. Haha. Gotta get rid of my cheap corals. Aha

Haha! That's what I've been doing.. I got rid of most of the low grade ones to my LFS.. Since their not worth selling online.. But I need a few more Rainbow Chalices in here.. So LMK when you plan on releasing a couple:angel:

Anyone else feeding their LPS any ways that have not been mentioned? Hopefully some people have gotten a few good ideas from this Thread.. I know I have!!
