Don’t feed my euphyllia but place them right below where I feed my fish. Torches get little bits of food when feeding fish and fish doing their biz all day on top of them.

I've tried countless times to feed torches, hammers, frogs, etc... and they just slime up and the food drifts away in a snotty mess as soon as the pumps come back on. I've given up trying to feed them.

You can give them plankton or mysis shrimp but not necessary as long as you are feeding to fish.

Same, What the euphyllia can get from the water column and poo, should be plenty.

My euphyllia keep dying for some reason, but I used to feed them RedSea AB+ and BRS Chili.

I guess the water may be too clean for them. Everything else is fine.

I feed benepets to all my torches and hammers and they love it. I only feed once a week so they can fully digested the food.
