Bigjohnwoody Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I want to get an acrylic tube to spot feed and curious to what size in diameter everyone has or recommends. I will be using it to spot feed my mini maxi and duncans and whatever other corals I get in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trautman Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 what exactly makes a glass spot feeding tube? is it just a tube? or does it require a ball at the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 what exactly makes a glass spot feeding tube? is it just a tube? or does it require a ball at the end? It's like the nautilus ones that lfs sell. Like a turkey baster. They work really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
