Fed tank with chopped oyster - coral “bloomed”

[Harry H]

My 10g nano tank has the usual additives - magnesium, coral Food, vitamins... and the corals are well fed (I think). 3 days ago, out of curiosity, I decided to chop up a frozen oyster (from NTUC Finest, note it is not live oyster) and feed 1/3 of it to the corals. They just “bloomed”. Maybe there is iodine and other additional nutrients. Just kidding.

Maybe it is just a coincidence. No direct causation effect. But nice to see the corals blooming. Like S$6 for a pack of frozen oysters that can last months. And don’t overfeed as usual. Just sharing this observation and happy reefing!

Hi. This is a good tip. Even expensive reef feed uses oyster eggs. By chop meaning... How fine was it?

Just use a knife as frozen oyster kind of “melts”
