How often do you feed your corals?

How often do you target feed your corals or do you at all?

Also what do you feed them?

Multiple voting is allowed for this poll.

I try to feed mine every 3 days. Some times, well most of the time I forget though and feed them when I remember.

I target feed them my DIY fish food.

I have a DIY food and plankton squares I feed to the corals once or twice a week. As far as target feeding the only ones I target feed are the trach and the rose.

depends on the corals for the LPS corals either mysis or table shrimp without the shells. for the SPS and other filter feeders, i dose Dt's phyto plankton and julian sprungs marine snow

I picked rarely. What i mean by that is i dont intentionally feed them. They grab stuff from when the fish are feed.

I also will from time to time dump rotifers into the sump and that feeds some corals

forgot to mention, i feed my corals about every two days.

about every 5 days, Alot feeding they get is from fish feeding, it keeps the phosphates down that way.

Right on guys keep the votes and info coming

I fed every two days before, but now I feed maybe once a week or two and the corals seem to have improved. The aquarist in charge of the coral tank at the Denver Aquarium said he doesn't feed the corals, which led me to re-evaluate my feeding schedule. The Aquarium's tank is quite impressive I might add.

i feed them daily but targeting feeding on those that dont feed through photosynthesis (dentronephthya ,tubastraea) i feed them julian sprung marine snow, aqua medic zooplankton , kent phytoplankton and add every night Zeovit coral vitalizer (natural coral food).

No pics, you're just gonna have to fly out here and see it for yourself . The coral quarantine tank is just as impressive, but the public never gets to see that.

my corals get fish poop. oh and the occasional cube of cyclops or some reef roids but thats only when I'm in an "algae downturn" phase

I might be back out your way in a year or so....

Another one of your trips to most secluded, desolate place in Colorado you could possibly find?

LOL yep, to visit the wifes dads side of the family.

Traget feed every other day mostly. I use Rod's food, PE Mysis, rotifers and Coral food with a splash of garlic guard and Seachem's Reef Plus vitamins and amino acids and I put it in a cup with a 5ml dropper. My powder brown tang tries to eat all of it and some goes to the other fish that doesn't stick to the polyps.

I picked rarely because I mostly let the corals eat what the fish miss. I feed rod's food 2-3 times a week and it has some smaller particle foods in it. I don't target feed much, but I do see the LPS catching some of the mysis as I do feed the tank heavy.

Mostly all of them daily, or every other day. Usually cycolpeeze and mysis, basically what I feed the fish goes to all the corals as well.
