Gorgeous scape and coral wow! I'm guessing you strap t5s to the sides of the tank for a few hours during the day to keep those shaded ones purdy =)

I wouldn't say coral snow is a food but more of another filtration devise per say! I use this along side the vodka, as most people are aware sometimes the use of carbon such as vodka could kick start red slime this coral snow keeps the red slime in check.

on a side note here is what they say about this product "Coral Snow neutralizes undesirable acids and is a solution against slime algae and cyano bacteria."
