How often do you feed your SPS?

[Jaws]

For those out there that keep mainly SPS, how often are you feeding them, if at all, and what are you feeding them?

That is a really good question. I have never specifically fed my SPS as i have always had fish in the aquarium as well so just assumed that they would pull whatever they needed out of the water column. I am thinking about setting up a new tank with only coral (SPS) and no fish so wonder what and how often to feed the tank.

I feed mine every blue moon with about a 1/2 tsp of cyclop-eeze, mostly just for fun. I have fed every other day, I have fed newly hatched brine shrimp daily for months, and I've gone over a year with no feeding at all. No difference either way. So if you like to add extra nutrients, feeding SPS is good.

I do the blue moon deal as well. Every once in awhile I decide the tank needs a little something. I've done both reef-roids and reef chili. I don't really notice that the tank responds greatly to it but it makes me feel like I've done something nice for it

Ditto. I've tried feeding and not feeding, no real difference. You might notice more polyp extension when you feed if you feed, but I never noticed a difference in terms of growth or colour. I did notice a difference with my tank nutrient levels though. Very easy to overdo it!

I do the same as Brad but maybe less.
