bamburgb Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I just wanted to see what the general consensus is for how often people feed there corals and fish? I have had my tank up for close to 4 or 5 years and had asked the same question on Facebook and found out some people feed there corals minimum of 2x daily and some more often (fish as well) and I have always just done fish and corals once a week. Fish I feed: Brine shrimp, krill (engineer goby and anemones only), blood worms, seaweed/nori Corals I feed: oyster feast, cyclops (do this with a pipette on each individual coral) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Z Reef Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) It's depends on your livestock. I have 4 larger tangs and a few wrasses and others. I feed at least 1x a day, usually 2x. Once with pellets/dry and once with frozen. If I don't my blue hippo gets hungry and bites on some LPS :( And for corals, I feed about 2x a week broadcast, not individual Edited April 4, 2015 by Blue Z Reef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yourmedic Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I have a smaller tank, (40 gal Breeder), A couple fish and a starfish, one of which is an engineer goby. I feed dry 1-2 a day and frozen once a day. Everybody seems pretty and tank is fairly clean. My biggest worry is that the goby isn't getting enough to eat. Hides out a lot, and will grab a piece of frozen if it comes by the rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamburgb Posted April 4, 2015 Author Share Posted April 4, 2015 When i do the feeding the engineer goby (he is almost 2ft long) usually gets like 3 krill he comes out and will take them right out of my hand or come grab them from the tweezers. But he usually stays hidden accept when its feeding time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
