I use Oyster Feast as well, along with R.O.E. and Arcti-pods to feed my LPS. I'm not feeding my LPS right now though because Aiptasia LOVE the stuff.

Not at all. It drips into the tank better than phyto. It also doesn't spike nutrients. I think it actually helps lower the amount of food I add to the tank, because I spot feed less.
It comes out in pearl like droplets and gets busted up by wavemakers or fish. Everything in the tank comes alive. Stalks lean, polyps extend... there's a reaction.

Ill try to take some better pics tomorrow. You guys, and my own pics have me questioning it now lol. It was sold as an alveopora. For some reason I verified that in my mind. My mind isn't worth ten cents these days though.
