Hi, I have a small Lobo coral. I'm having a hard time feeding it. I have tried feeding it reef roids in the daytime but no clear reaction. Any help on how, what and when to feed would be much appreciated?http://

I feed mine Mysis at night when it's feeding tentacles are out.

I have seen videos that claim they feed in the daytime no problem . I tried this but no success. About how long after the lights go out do u feed?

Sometimes an hour after the lights go off and sometimes the next morning.

You should be able to see it's feeling tentacles at night.

Feeding tentacles

I was feeding mine NLS pellets and live black worms, but it's getting too big so I stopped.

This was usually done with the lights on & the power heads off btw. The food would be placed on top of the coral and within 10 minutes or so it was gone.

My large lobo only has feeding tentacles out when the lights are completely off hence I have to feed with a red flashlight. The tentacles rapidly disappear in the morning when the lights come on. And I mean rapidly disappear so have to be quick on the spot feeding which I use a mix of roids, chili and PE. Healthy coral so far.
