    i feed mine every couple of days.. i feed them the gel cycolpeeze stuff, i like it better than mysis, i can just glob a ball on their mouth and they eat it instantly..

    i feed all my corals the gel food with some mysis..they love it..

    i just switched to this not long ago..i used to have so much trouble feeding my lps..mysis would never stay, my controller would be on feeding time with no flow and still had problems..

    the cyclopeeze gel is awesome for coral feeding, or the brine mix...but anyway, i take one packet and can feed all my corals, a good bit each time, one cube of mysis would only last my two acan colonies...with the gel i can feed every head of acans, put a glob on my nem, candycanes, torch, duncans, elegance.. its so much easier now..and my corals have really taken off and brightening up alot more.. the globs also stay on the corals perfectly.. best thing ive tried, i used to never feed my corals because it took soooo long to feed them and wait to make sure they got it and a fish didnt take or the flow didnt take it..

    Very nice coral!!! It's one of my favorites.

    The gel food is made by Tetra in Germany and in Europe is sold under the Tetra name. In the US/Canada, it is repackaged and distributed by Instant Ocean.
