It will feed when you feed your other inhabitants. They eat meaty foods and detritus.

He is way too small to be in my main tank. He has no such items to eat. I need to know what and how to best target feed him. He needs beefed up.

Mine finds food, some how some way. He has been in there for over 3 months, only comes out at night (just found him again recently).
But to answer your question if you still want to try and target feed; chopped up mysis or other small meaty food bits.

So he is in his own tank? Like a pico? Meaty foods chop up meaty foods like mysis, clam,...etc. He will find his food!

He is in a display refuge, where there are no predators to swallow him whole.

I spot feed my coral with a baster bulb, what do you guys and gals use to hand feed mysis?

By feeding your corals your PomPom will get food because not all of the food you are feeding is being consumed by your corals. Crabs are scavengers it will find his food.

Thanx, but there are no coral in my display refugium where the pom pom is "in refuge".

Is there some kind of long roach clip thing or something I can use to hand feed shrimp and crabs? If so a link for this old fart would be appreciated.

I already have one of those long black pincers with the finger grab and push button top end and it is too big for the task.

Sorry I misread your response about the corals, I see you were saying how you spot feed your corals.

Just squirt some food his way and he will get it.
