I agree that most of my corals are photosynthetic and the water column should do with whats in he oceans reef crystals.

This is where the extra feeding comes in, do the polyps need spot feeding too? This is where the mix of three might come in handy i thought?
My advice is simply that your tank is small and feeding the corals can easily cause water pollution which will be a much bigger detriment to the corals than not feeding them will be.

If you really just want to "do something", then add a few drops (literally) per day of LIVE phytoplankton which will help to increase the zooplankton population in your tank. Then your corals can eat zooplankton as it comes along.
