I was just wondering what everyone feeds their reef tank. I currently feed mine Frozen Brine (thawed of course) Krill, mysis shrimp, and omega one flakes every now and then. For the inverts, we use Marine snow and KM Phytoplex. Everything seems to be doing great, but would like to add some variety????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:fish:
 
I'm not a fan of Kent foods- I use DT's instead. I also use reef chilli and tigger-pods every now and then- the corals seem to like it.
 
I use Kent foods for their convenience. I can leave them under my tank and not have to worry about them going bad (They have a 6 year shelf life). Plus, I don't have to walk to the refrigerator to get them because I'm lazy like that sometimes. I use Phytoplex and Zooplex...sometimes with a splash of chromaplex. Every once in a while, I'll throw in some DTs oyster eggs, and they also get whatever my fish don't eat i suppose...
 
Total Color Marine Flake Food everyday, Marc Wiess Soft Coral Grow whenever I think about it (hopefully atleast once a week), Frozen variety pack (clam/shrimp, Brine, Mysid and a Kelp) once a week, Kent Micro vert (which is junk, but use it anyway, sparingly) and phyto (whenever I grift some from Mark and use twice a week)

Where do you get your reef chili? I can't find it any place.
Thanks

A lil bit of chili goes a long way... Truthfully though I rarely feed my corals these days with the exception of my anemones. I'm a believer in [B]Reef Reaganomics[/B]: As in you feed the higher organisms and the nutrients will trickle down and feed the rest of your inhabitants, whether by food they missed or recycled food.

GREAT they had it... thank you. My anemones and Corals look great so maybe they don't 'need' it but I like to have it on hand.
Thank you very much
 
I use the San Fran Salt water Mix (4 frozen cubes) with brine shrimp. Seaweed sheets, Flyingarmy's Phyto.
 
Frozen Mysis (but I don't thaw it) I think there maybe good stuff in the frozen parts..Plus I break a big chunk off and hold it in the water and all my fish come eat out of my hand.

Then of course flake. I use Frozen Cyclopeeze, and frozen squid, and Nori, and anything I can find.

The key I find is to mix it up every day..The fish don't get the same stuff all the time. Just like us.
