Hello, I have a 100g display tank with plenty of flow. It’s predominantly a mixed reef. I do a 10% water change weekly using Blue Bucket. No major issues.
I rarely target feed, but when I do, I use BenePets, Reef-Roids, Reef Nutrition clam, and rotifers. All of my SPS seem to love this stuff.

However, I’ve noticed that my torches seem to develop BJD after feeding. I suspect Reef-Roids because this has happened before, but I figured it might have been something else. I fed the torches again recently and have now lost some really expensive pieces.

Has anyone else had the same experience with target feeding torches, particularly with Reef-Roids, or noticed a connection with BJD?

I personally havent made a connection of any of my torches death's too feeding, do you think the reef roids could be clogging their mouths/ irritating them?

I don't know. parameters are stable, only change was the feed. I was hoping to leave it up to the community collective and extrapolate from reports
