Question

Feeding SPS reefs


I am thinking I may need to feed the reef so to speak. I use DT's 4 times a week for the few calms I have and to feed the amphopods and mini stars I have. These guys cover the glass even during the day hours. I see them running along it. What should I do to augment the nutrition of my corals. I ordered the following products.

1) Coral Vital
2) Essential Elements
3) Aragamilk
$) Coral Accel

What type of experience do you guys have and what do you feed your tanks with?

Macerated/pureed fish, shrimp, clams, squid, Artemia nauplii, copepods, put in a blender together, frozen, thawed in R.O. water, and fed with a baster. Provides more of the nutrition corals are likely to see in the wild, with various types of protein and nekton...

Special thanks to Jerel for the Colonel's "Original Recipe", so to speak
