Seeking advise on what to feed

[DottyClown]

Hi, I currently have the following inhabitants in my 1.5ft nano tank.

Goniopora (Jewel)

Green Plate, short tentacle

DragonEye Zoas (Frag)

Yuma Mushroom

Hammer (branch)

Octo (branch)

Percula Clown (x 2)

Hector Goby (x 1)

Blood Shrimp

Also planning to include:

Blue Neon Goby

Springer Damselfish

Leather Toadstool (anyone selling? Yellow color and fist size would be nice.)

Currently only feeding pellets to my clown and shrimp daily, with occasional pieces of fish meat.

All inhabitants are doing well, except the plate is losing its green color,

I'm now considering mixing RN Phyto-Feast & Arcti-Pods to feed the corals and Mysis Shrimps for the fishes and shrimp, only once a week. While still continue pellets daily.

But am concerned if this will still increase the nutrient level too much.

Appreciate any comments or advise if this is a feasible feeding plan. Thanks.

For mysis, always thaw and wash away the liquids before feeding as it will greatly reduce unnecessary nutrients.

Yes, doing that. Thanks:)

Agreed with Bro Gouldian.

Always sink and wash with RO/DI water used by coffee strainer before feed it.

Also, I find its more efficient to feed corals with all wave-maker and/or pumps off, especially for slow reacting corals.

I will use tank water to thaw and rinse the Mysis.

[DottyClown]

Right, will off pumps when feeding.

Will try the "syringe and balloon stick" method described in another posting:)

thaw and turn off pump and wavemaker for half hour..
