Need recommendations on feeding tubastrea

[Ephraim]

When they are new, they are usually underfed, so give each of the polyps some food every 2 nights at least. After a few weeks of that once a week should be fine. I have been feeding mine NLS and Mysis. Keep an eye on the fish and inverts in the tank that might steal the food away. After it has aclimated an is strong enough, the food wont get stolen, it'll pack enough punch to defend itself. I've been trying to train it to come out during the day but that seems to be a slow process, i can always get the best feeding response at 2am. Remember to place in high flow.

You get up at 2 in the morning to feed a coral? Now that's dedication

I found with mine, once it had got used to being fed mysis, all I have to do is blow some of the juice over it and all the polyps will open up. Now I feed it in the morning when the lights come on and it seems to stay open all day afterwards.

Feed in two shifts. Feed the fish, then return 1/2 hour later to feed the sun coral. I found that the coral opened in response to the fish feeding.
