Had ich outbreak recently in DT. Moved fish to QT and treating with Copper Power. Looking for suggestions on what I should feed my now fallow display while I eradicated the ich... Already had 1 snail and 1 emerald crab die. but don't know if it is related to my greatly reduced feeding or not. Was plenty of algae for them to munch on. Only been feeding reefroids 2x times per week. Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
 
A small piece of Rod's food a couple days a week for the inverts to feed on is what I've been feeding.
 
I would just direct feed until then , I’d do what was suggest above . Coral frenzy has worked for me as well

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
