Need Recommendation for Coral Food

[Terrance]

What brands and bottles of coral food do you use for your coral? And where did you buy it?

I currently use reef chili. I have used marine snow and a phyto-something or other...it was kent stuff all I remember. I never really got much benefit from feeding, as I have no non-photosynthetics. Just started back up again with the reef chili to see how things go.

 

[Terrance]

Which size container of reef chili did you get and how long do you think it would last if you used it 1-2 times weekly? Did you target or broad feed this stuff?

 

[Sniperhank]

I broadcast feed. Idk the container size, it's a small container but a little goes a long way. It comes with a spoon to measure it with and each leveled off spoonful is for 20 gallons according to the instructions. I've still barely made a dent in the stuff b

I mix Coral Smoothie and Reef Fuel at a 50/50 ratio and spot feed every other day with a turkey baster. Awesome growth and color.

I have reef fuel but haven't seen anything besides increased algae growth...

I dont target feed my corals. They get all they need from the lighting and water column. Have not target fed for the 14+ yrs I have had my reef.

The only corals I occasionally target feed with some mysis are my "active" eaters like my palys, acans, trumpet, candy, & hammer. My softies & SPS are more trouble than they're worth as far as too many nutrients in the water vs. what they consume.

Ive never fed my coral either i feed my fish once a day and the coral eat off the small particles from that i feed rods

My main reason for feeding is my clam and coco worm. Coral just get bonus by broadcast feeding.
