Why Turn Off Pumps During Feeding?

[daniella3d]

any logical reason? there are plenty of logical reasons. I stop my pumps so that my anemone have the time to eat the food before the flow blow everything off...I cut the pumps so that I can feed my dendros before the strong flow take the food off of them...I cut the pumps so that my zoanthids, palythoas and ricordeas have time to swollow the food before they get blasted...and finally I cut the pumps so that the little live white worms that I feed my copperband do not get spread everywhere and stuck in every bit of crevasse in my totoka liverock...
