I haven't feed mine anything yet and have had them in my tank for a couple of months now. I was looking into some liquid food for them which i might get soon.

This is what i was planning on buying.

I just feed mine Phyto and they are multiplying like crazy. I started of 3 months ago with 5 polyps and now I have around 80 polyps under Power Compacts. I am installing T5 lighting on my tank on Tuesday so they should start growing even faster.
