When do you feed your corals ?

[nickeg79]

So I’ve been manually dosing phyto and Red Sea AB.

I do it at the same time in the morning when I feed my fish. About a half hour after the lights come on.

What time is optimal ? Is it better to hit them right before the lights go out ? Middle of the day ?

I feed my corals every time my fish poop I do not feed anything.

I feed once a week on Wednesday. I feed my carpet a shrimp and then the coral’s reef roids or Red Sea reef nutrition.

I feed my LPS brine/mysis or whatever else I feed the tank as I have a long expandable turkey baster plus I dose phytoplankton 1-3 times a day...

Phytoplankton into the water or directly to the corals?

a long expandable turkey baster

Does it telescope or something? Having a hard time visualizing how it expands.

I used to do that. I saw a video on instagram feeding mysis and Red Sea to a chalice. I got a few wild chalices and I’m trying to keep them colored up. I’m trying the food to keep them happy hopefully

I turn off the skimmer and dump it right into the DT...

It has a thinner tube inside the tube with the bulb that expands and essentially doubles the length... Mine is slightly different but same concept - https://a.co/d/dPVlugP
