    Yes, what kind of polyps? I have green star polyps that I don't feed at all, Red Zoa polyps that get some cyclopeeze....Large polyp stony corals get meaty foods...

    Oh, OK. Those are Zoanthid polyps. I have one colony and I don't particularly feed them at all. Occasionally, some frozen cyclopeeze. That 's it.
