feeding

[prec]

how do i make sure that the food (pellets or cyclo) gets into the right direction of the fishes and corals?? seems like they are all flying towards the back of my tank..

shld i just do flooding??

[mUAr_cHEe]

flooding is only advised (by me) if u have a good NNR system... or a good skimmer...

a good way to feed corals would be target feeding....

a good way to feed fishes is switch off the powerheads and prob the return pump when u are feeding.... in this way... the food would not fly to places where u dun want them to....

prob a good idea to get some cleaner crew to eat the leftover food...

scooter blennies is not bad a choice... or not.. some hermit crabs...

hmm okay.. but how many of you actually turn off everything just for feeding? it seems quite weird.. to on and off a few times every day..

I never switch off anything when I feed. The water currents should sweep the food everywhere. If not, then you dunt have enuff water movement

it does sweep the food everywhere.. back its all flying too fast towards the back while my fishes and corals are at the front..

adjust your powerhead to another angle so the current flow is wat u wanted in feeding time.

you can use a cut up 1 litre mineral water bottle and cover the coral then inject the liquid food from the opening cap
