I squirt most of the mysis into the output of my surge with a turkey baster as carefully as I can.. When the surge fires it sends food everywhere. Guess it depends on what you're feeding though. I've got fish, cleaner shrimp, pistol shrimp, nassarius snails bursting from the sand bed, corals plucking at it, you name it. I guess if you're specifically just trying to get a little food to your fish you'd want less current.

I wish I could drive one of those.

I drop the food in as well, I figure whatever the fish don't eat will be consumed by the reef crew. My skimmer also shuts down for a whil after feeding mysis. Gotta wonder if there is that much fat in the food, if it really is all that good for the fish.
