The best time to feed Lps is 1-2hrs after the lights are out, use a red or purple led flash light shut off flow and feed most Lps like brains, lobo, acans, scolly's have crazy feeders out.

I think a few people here will agree that Lps may grow with LEDs but I have never had success with led and certain Lps. It seems like they bleach.
But it seems like his colors are good, just not growing....I would still lean towards more larger bits of food.

At one point I did feed the acans mysis regularly... Didn't seem to make any difference
