Hi all, I have recently put in a toadstool leather and a Duncan lps. I also have a decent zoa colony. Should I start spot feeding the Duncan coral or wait until I have more in the tank for more broadcast feeding? Thanks

Target feeding is almost always better, just more time consuming. With so few corals, I would target feed or not feed at all.

I agree here. Everything you have is photosynthetic so technically you don’t need to feed but they do thrive when fed occasionally. You will have to watch that you don’t overfeed (if you choose to feed) so you don’t create an algae bloom from too high nutrients.
