How's it going guys? I had one simple question about direct feeding my coral. This is my first tank and i have one hammer coral, one kryptonite candy cane coral and one open brain coral. It is very easy to feed my brain and candy cane since i can see their "mouths" directly. With my hammer is a different story, with all the hammer tentacles floating around i can't directly feed it in its mouth. So what i do is i just end up dropping mysis shrimp, pellets, and other foods on its tentacles. What happens is the tentacles grasp on to the food and retract inwards, is that how they feed? Are the tentacles bringing the food in to the hammer's mouth?
