feeding

This may be normal, but it's the first time I've seen it. It looks like some Reef Roids was coming back out (last feeding was 8hrs prior). The suspected food has been taken in and protruded once again after the photo was taken. Can anyone confirm my suspicion and if this is normal behavior? Thanks!

SO today I got a mandarin in my nuvo 20 gallon tank and added some copepods from the trigger pods brand I was just wondering how long will it be till i have to add another batch as I am worried my boy will starve. He is doing fine and he has eaten a couple off the wall already , also if you have...

I have a Carpenter Flasher Wrasse in QT right now. He's eating LRS great right now. I've heard they need to be fed several times a day, which I'm doing right now but Later this year I won't be home to feed multiple times a day. If I have a healthy pod population do I need to feed multiple times...

Whether its 2 cubes in 1 feeding or 1 cube in each feeding in a day?

I have a new Midas Blenny that I just added to my display after a month in QT. He is super skittish and hides every time I walk by the tank. I am worried about him not getting enough food. In the QT it wasn't an issue for feeding because he had no competition. In my display though by the time...

Hello, I have seen some clownfish that are about 2 1/4 inches long and I have seen some that are about 1 1/4 inches long. What do the people feed and how often to get a clownfish grow to be 2 1/4 inches long?

what do y’all use to feed Fathead Dendro or do you know what works? I have nano reef roids and regular fish pellets. And will be picking up a single Dendro frag next week, what do you recommend. Thanks,John

So I am new to the saltwater tanks and have just started my tank with three blue/green chromis and two Ocellaris clownfish. I have had the chromis for about a month and the clown fish for about a week and a half. I have been feeding my chromis brine shrimp from day one, same food my lfs fed...

Hey all! I have a question that may be dumb but its something i need to know. So basically i have a green bubble tip in my tank that eats really quick! Ive only had it for 2 weeks so im pretty new to feeding nems. I feed it a small piece of shrimp every 3 days or so and every time i feed it i...

I have a 55 gallon FOWLR tank with two mated Occelaris clownfish and one extremely shy firefish goby, and it's been my dream to have a seahorse in there ever since. I'm getting some caulerpa prolifera Macro algae to put in there next week. I think I will have to feed a lot in order to give the...

I recently purchased two Firefish from my local shop. I am unsure if they are a mated pair - from what I have noticed thus far (they have been in the tank for about a day or so) they are very shy, which I expected, and have been slightly aggressive toward one another. However, the back of my...

I have two small, inch-long Ocellaris Clownfish. The food I have is New Life Spectrum Thera A+ Small Fish Formula A. Very miniscule pellets. So how many should I feed them? I've been feeding a small pinch, which is around 8-10 pellets once a day. Does that sound right?

Check this out! Just having Some fun with the Tank lol

Also, is this a bubble tip? He survived the phosphate crash, and was part of the 2nd rescue tank. Two clowns were with him, all fish in QT now. One of those clowns died. (white spots appeared on some fish, some died a few days later, some in QT, dosing Cupramine) So it's been about 10 days...

Hello, I saw my LFS feeding lettuce for their tangs. is this ok? I know they are hervs but lettuce?

Hey, I had saltwater setups in other states but recently set up a 150 here in AZ. I have bought and used the live "Reef Stew" sold in the LFS in the area and I was wondering how often others I the area add this to their tanks. Thanks

Anyone hatch brine shrimp and feed to tank or grow out and feed ? I was wondering if it is a common practice and what kind of set up you have if so?

I have a 120 gallon mixed tank with sps and soft coral. Everything doing fine! Today we go on a 2 week vacation to Italy. We have really good people taking care of our tank so I'm not worried. This morning I fed a ton of mysis and added a few gallons of water just to be safe for the trip...

I have a candy cane that was supposedly DOA when it arrived a couple of weeks ago. The thing is, it's not dead, and seems to be mounting a comeback, with soft tissue slowly regrowing from the calcified cups. I also have a cauliflower colt, that also seemed DOA, but it too seems to be slowly...

Who here washes or rinses their food before feeding to eliminate excess nutrients? Has anyone seen any perceived positives or negatives? Curious. Thanks.

I have recently started using Red Sea's Reef energy and Reef-Roids. What time of the day does everyone feed and how often? Target feeding?

Hi there. First time asking for a question my wife raves about the responses so here goes. We have a newer reef tank with a yellow tang and a kole tang. The kole is new to the tank and as such is not really eating yet. The yellow LOVES the omega one super veggie kelp flakes. On advice from...

We all know folks have their own recipe when it comes to feeding their corals (be that softies, LPS, SPS or NPS). What I'm interested in finding out is what do you use to feed your corals? If you can choose only max 3, what will you go for? Use the vote button please.
