WHO is DR. Robert J. Goldstein? Who?
Just another guy who thought he could make a couple bucks by writing a book about the reef aquarium. Maybe all he made was the $20 from me. :lol:
I found that after I stopped feeding my open brain it's growth slowed down for awhile too, but it picked up again after it was used to not being fed.

Well I have tried to feed my Blastomusa again but it doesn't seem to want it now? no clue.. and for some reason my Xenia seem to be shrinking and the tips are either missing or getting smaller.. I thought maybe the fish were nipping them?

Regardless of what I said about my belief that they don't really need to be fed, Brad is right, it can only help. You can feed them with a commercial type food or blend frozen brine shrimp and spot feed them with a pippet. It should expand and extend it's polyps.

I tried doing this.. I turned off all the PH the pumps etc.. so the water was still.. Then I tried to drop the stuff onto it. I got one on but the thing did nothing and I was trying to keep all the fish and shrimp at bay from getting this stuff.. was nuts.. I finaly gave up and turned everything back on and the shrimp ended up with what I was trying to feed the coral.. oh well.. will try again tomorrow maybe

How are you making out feeding Blastomusa now Chad?

hey guys how do you feed them ? is it blendered squid or .... i am confused
