I've only recently started to spot feed some of my LPS. I have recently acquired things like acans, blastos, favia, candy cane coral, etc . . . that will put out feeder tentacles. I spot feed them about once a week with various foods, mostly cyclopeeze, mysis, and oyster eggs for them.

I spot feed mysis and cyclopeeze sometimes, but most of the time I just addit in the water column.

Once a week,I spot feed a mixture of cyclopeez, rotifers and prawn eggs. To keep the fish from robbing the food from the aussies I float a small piece of krill.
