I love to feed my Duncan shrimp but I don't want to over feed. Comments, Suggestions, and Experiences?

Also, I just got a new Acan and I was wondering how to get it to feed. I was told they have a cool feeding mechanism.
 
I just shoot some mysis on them with a turkey baster every once in a while. Turn the pumps of first obviously. If you do it on water change day you can clean up any left over mess too.

Acans just shoot a prawn or something in its mouth at night. If its feeders are not out trust me it will be now. When it comes to feeding I dont think you can "Over feed" per say. I means whats gonna happen a over weight coral? I think the issue comes you can raise your PO4 and NO3 be feeding. My system I feed my fish almost twice a day and corals every night and my PO4's are .04 and NO3 is below 5 but traceable which is where I like them.
