tthey lovee cyclo....when i started feeding that i saw i big jump in growth

Has anyone actually seen a zoanthid ingest cyclopeeze? I feed it to mine, but am not convinced that it goes into their little mouths.

 

[Nanofins]

I have seen some eat cyclop-eeze, and other foods, but this is mostly palythoas/protopalythoas and not so much zoanthids. I have never actually seen a regular zoanthid ingest a food item. It's entirely possible, though, that they may utilize their cilia to catch microscopic food items and guide them into their mouths.

Proper stable parameters, good lighting, good indirect ( non-battering flow ), Nutrients in the water ( not point of sale/nitrates/nitrites )
