    Just taken with a cameraphone and sped up.

    Here's another if you didn't see of a Brain Coral eating at 40x speed...

    Man, you are lucky that your fish leave your LPS alone during feeding... lol my clowns attack the corals I feed every single time. Vicious beasts I tell you. Very cool video. Thanks for sharing!

    My trick is I feed the fish a hearty meal 20 mins earlier,and then turn off all flow, and then feed the corals, while still 'spraying' a few empty spots in the tank too [w/o flow the food 'hangs' in the area you spray] - so that any still-hungry fish rush to the that other spot.


    But many of my fish still do use the corals as a 'dinner buffet'... in my Brain Coral Eats video you can see the Rabbitfish come over and eat the spectrum pellet before the coral can eat it, and then my Blenny comes over for a look around for tasties as well...

    but like I said, trick is to feed fish first, and feed them well. 8)
