How do you feed your duncan

Hey i have a piece of 15+ duncan heads, They are beautiful. I've never learn how to feed them but i only feed my corals with the same type of food, Oyster liquid that i bought from the store. Any how couple months back when i had my smaller tank i was cleaning it, My duncan was swallowing up my feather worm. LOL, I was likg W T F that thing fits in a duncan mouth, LOL so i took the worm out it was dead meant. Anyways how do i feed duncans.

 

it's easy. Either use a turkey baster and squirt food over the polyps or use tweezers or tongs and feed each head. I feed mine all types of meaty foods.

 

I feed my tank frozen mysis and cyclopeez a few times a week. I don't target feed any of my corals, they pickup whatever they can in the current. I tried feeding my duncans a few times but the shrimps always seem to fight them for food when I target feed so I stopped and and I didn't see any difference in growth rate or colors.

 

About once every two weeks, I target feed my duncan and the rest of my eating corals with a mixture of MarineSnow, Rod's Food, and tank water, with a turkey baster and at night. They close right up when you squirt food into their mouths. It works great for me and they seem to be happy, happy afterwards. If my any of my shrimp go near them, they get a blast of water from the baster themselves. Good luck.

By the way, 15 head duncan, very nice .

Actually it grew Two small heads, I never notice till now. LOL

 

During feeding time I squirt a bunch of mysis at my duncans. They grab some pieces and my fish get the extra! Works well.

 

I put a few cubes of squid and mysis in a syringe and squirt it into the group of heads.
