Coral Frenzy
 
Just wondering how many people use this food for there corals,
and if so do the corals actually feed on it or is it simply better
to dig out my turkey baster:biggrin:

I use it in my tank. I use this, Reef Roid and Fauna Marin food for my corals. I don't target feed as it is a powder, I simply pour it in the water and shut off the skimmer for an hour so the coral have a chance to eat it before the skimmer grab it all.

I have crazy growth in my SPS, not sure if it's the food or what, but some of my corals grow like 1" per month. I think the food is really helping. I also give Zeovit amino acid and sponge power.

I use anouther brand but it too is the powder type with vitamins and minerals.
I just dose the tank with a pinch and let the corals grab whatever floats past.

Not to thread jack but I have also wondered about coral foods for some time now and wondered if they did anything or were just another "snake oil". I am using fauna marin ultra A min amino acids and have always thought if I started adding more coral foods it will just increase the bio load of my tank and spring on some algea growth...
