Who feeds their LPS and what do you feed them?

[thartsockpg]

Title says it all. Do you think it's needed?

I've always fed my LPS, mostly Duncan's, Acans, and Torches for me. Usually whatever I'm feeding at the time is what they get, mostly mysis shrimp.

Some people do feed and some don't, I really like to promote growth.

When I worked at Red Lobster I would take the raw calamari rings and soak them in warm water, then chop them into tiny pieces. My frogspawn used to chow down on it.

Cyclop-Eeze and newly hatched San Francisco strain brine shrimp.

Here is a video of a Candy Cane coral that is in rough shape which I got for free to see if I could bring it back to life. Skipper my Citron Gobi is helping out ...

Minced clam and shrimp once a week

I spot feed my lps every 3 days - feed them silverside, mysis, mussels, pellets...etc

 

[Alf]

Fauna marin pellets twice a week...

I voted no but my LPS do eat. I just don't target feed them. They can either catch what fish food is in the water column or zooplankton that naturally occurs in the system. I used to target feed but it just degraded water quality and my fish steal most of the food anyway.

I feed all my corals Coral Frenzy 2 - 3 times a week. Really satisfied with it.

 

[thartsockpg]

Thanks for the info! Lets keep it up!

 

[creefer]

I feed fauna marin LPS pellets....2x per week.

 

[jackers]

I do about once a week, and a big one the night before a water change.

Ya for me it's mysis when I feed the fish and I'll throw some to the chalices. Other than that I do fauna Marin pellets

And I also really love the this stuff I got from mike at sexy corals call coral smoothie. It's awesome!

Hikari frozen gut loaded Brine shrimp, Mysis Shrimp, Nutramar Ova, NLS pellets and Coral Extacy.

Duncan and cup coral once in awhile the rest when I feed the fish they get whatever floats to them. Just don't overfeed photosynthesis is usually enough but spot feeding will promote faster growth.

i target feed with mysis. i try for twice a week. it does help my growth and color tremendously.

 

[Crystal03JC]

I target feed mysis. Some eat table shrimp. Reef plankton gets mixed in as well.

I get a really good feed response from all the LPS and Zoas and mushrooms with newly hatched brine shrimp ( San Francisco strain which is very small). However the best response is from feeding Oyster Feast. I feed frequently b/c I have lots of filter feeder and a few NPS gorgonians.
