Simple question, Do you all turn your PH's off during feeding?


I was feeding my damsel the other day and when my two 900 PH's got ahold of the flake food they turned it to shreds!!!
 
I do not turn off anything when I'm feeding my fish. Does the ocean turn off its wavemakers when it comes time for the fish to feed? :wink:

I do, however, feed out of a turkey baster (used for this ONLY) and target feed my fish. The second it goes into the water, they zoom to it and start "sucking" on it like a baby bottle. Saves a ton of food from being spread all over the place. After they eat for a few min this way, I'll dump the last few specks into the tank so that my crabs have a bit more to chew on.
 
I will only turn my PH off if im target feeding corals otherwise i leave them on. If using flake food i always soak it in water so it dont just float at the top before i feed...Helps alot!
