ghost feeding
so my clowns past away last week and now my tank has some corals and 3 hermits, and incredible amounts of pods. i havent feed my tank beside phyto for about a week. i would like to add fish after i wait about 4-6 weeks, in the mean time should i be feeding the tank? I'd also like to know why. thank you.

Both your clowns died in one week??????
Something is wrong. Definitely wrong. Maybe I missed it, but did you already post this as happening??

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

How is your water testing? Was it definitely a parasite?

what parameters didnt pick up anything. as im new I'm not sure it was a parasite.
since ive been using rodi water and sump with fuge installed i dont have much algae besides coraline. todays w/c might get tap water. like my tank is looking crisp, clean, sand is very clean. but its not the hermits im worried about its the bacteria, and pods.

By feeding your tank a couple of days a week, it will help maintain bacteria levels and the tank won't get the double ammonia whammy (from the food and the fish) when you do finally add fish

go for the pellets, they're easier. just drop a few in every 3 days or so
