Are there documents or instructions posted anywhere with recommended usage for Fauna Marin coral food products? I have the powdered Zoanthus food that has no recommendations on the bottle.

Personally I soak mine in tank water for about 10 min. Does not take much. I use an old spoon from an old salifert test kit to measure works great. Then turn of all power heads. With a baster spot feed and then turn everything back on. All my lps love it. Once the flow kicks on my sps have insane polyp extension. Great product.

I'd like a bit clearer too... exactly how much? I don't know wheather to add say a teaspoon of pellets and powder or more?? I could see figuring out the pellets depending on how many coral u are feeding it too, but the powder is really questionable...

HI

It is always hard to say how much to feed if i did not know how big the tanks and how many corals are in
could you send me a little bit more information about your tank?

The normal Dosing is 3 - 5 gramms together with 5 ml Min D mix to a mash and from this mash 1 - 2 ml/26Usgal daily

Needing guidance on whether to spot feed, or broadcast feed to the tank. Had not heard of the mash before - good info. What is Min D.

Hi
If you have only the food then mix it with seawater to a mash and take it in a syringe
that how i work with
you can also mix it daily new in a spoon with water
MIN D is a aminoacid food solution

As far as the lps pellets, how often should it be fed? and how much each time?

I feed about 10-15 pellets per plate, scoly, lobos... and about a pellet each to palys, mushrooms, ricordeas, etc... about once a week.
