badxgillen Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 It really depends on the particular type of coral as some eat more frequently than others. If I had to give a general answer to this question I would say twice a week. My Anemones eat about onces a week. I feed my euphylias,acans,brains, and most other LPS 2 times a week or every other day. And other corals like my gorgonians eat every day via frozen food or broadcast filter feeding. I used to get rotifers for my SPS but the person I knew culturing them no longer has them and I did not setup a proper propagation system for them.

pledosophy Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I feed my tank 4-5x a day. I like to watch the fish eat. What can I say Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Kevin, I love your signature. It almost sounds like Mark Twain was in our forums over the past year or so! I feed my fish twice a day with auto feeder while I'm at work, and I tend to feed them at least one more time when I'm home with some fancy frozen something or other. I feed oyster feast and Reef Chili on most saturdays when I remember for the corals. Edited May 8, 2015 by Bicyclebill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamburgb Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I usually feed mine once a week (that being fish and corals) but have been upping it now to twice a week never the same time or day just usually a couple days in between to keep the detritus down.

If I go more then 4 hours without feeding my fish are all at the front of the glass when anyone walks by. I feed 2 cubes of cyclopleese, two cubes of mysis, a piece of Rods, Reef Roids, Coral Frenzey, and phyto daily. I also carbon dose, as you know all that adds up.

bamburgb Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I do 2 cubes frozen blood worms, 2 cubes brine shrimp, for the engineer goby usually 3 pieces of krill and for the anemones 2 pieces of krill now twice a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
