If you feed your fish a varied diet they will crop your corals. Obviously if you want your polyps and softies to grow and multiply you need to put any food inside their mouths. The Fauna Marin Lps food is special. Only food that triggers a ridiculous response to my Lps all types.

I add that food to my frozen foods.

Oyster Feast is also a very good coral food. Live Phytoplankton is also excellent coral food. I've noticed most coral food that spoils in a short amount of time is usually what triggers a great response in the reef.

I feed Reef A + B, then 15 minutes later Oyster Feast.

Gonne buy some more food and mix with it =)

I love over feed, but I change 20% water every 3-4 days

You're a sick man. You buy a few at a time? Sell me one or trade me for the new batch of WickedFeast.

Try zeovit nano pack. Since you only have a nano tank. The most beautiful tank i have ever seen runs zeovit. Even if you don't run the whole zeovit system, you can still use their other product like the coral vitalizer. Just do 1 drop twice a week. Then check your corals. People says that they see good result in just 1 week.

I feed my fish frozen brine only, and i spot feed those corals who need it with the same stuff. I have tried Marine Snow, never saw an improvement, but with the use of brine shrimp everything looks great! Plus its easy and cost effective.

I just started feeding my LPS pellet fish food (like Reef Nutrition Formula 1 & 2 and Spectrum pellets). Just started this week, but have seen some positive responses by the corals. I'm feeding my Euphylia corals, bubble coral, candy canes and favia. I've seen all but the favia eat the pellets, and not only did they eat them- they devoured them lol.
