I saw an interesting thread about how sun corals are very hard to keep. The guy was saying that he will take a large bowl and fill with tank water then add coral food to bowl, then place sun coral in bowl to allow the sun coral to feed without interruption and competition. He said that once he stated doing that the sun coral has been thriving in his tank. Just an FYI.

We use a 2 liter soda bottle with the bottom cut off...that way everything is confined and fish cant steal the food.

Both would work well. I tend to spot feed it after dark and the fish don't bother it.
