Default What and how do you feed your filter feeding corals?

I was just wondering how everyone is feeding their filter feeding corals? What kind of food? Do you turn off the lights? Do you leave the pump running? and anyother things.

Thanks

I feed phytofeast every day after lights out and just leave everything running. I also feed oyster eggs and cyclopeese about 2-3 times a week and just mix it in with the regular daily feeding of my homemade gruel.

I even don't want to ask how much you going to feed in that new 300gal tank!!! They should bring school field trips to your house.

Can't wait to see some pictures once is up and running.

Cheers

I use a variety similar to Ruth. I generally feed about an hour before the lights go out so all corals have a chance to enjoy the feeding before and after dark. I leave the pump running.
