I work nightshift and I'm trying to figure out when to feed my corals and I'm wondering if I can feed them when I get homeat around 7 in the morning because it says that it's best to feed them 2 hours after the light goes out so my light goes off at 8 and doesn't come on right now until 12 so I'm wondering if I should change the light schedule because I leave for work at 920 at night or when should I feed them because I can set the light earlier and wake up earlier to feed them any suggestions? Thanks!!

I have fed my LPS throughout the day....I have never waited until night. Stubborn LPS can usually be enticed to eat by spreading some food in the tank a few minutes before trying to feed them directly.
