Target feeding your LPS

2 questions:

1) what do you all target feed your LPS with? I am currently using frozen brine shrimp, but am thinking of switching to small chunks of frozen market prawn as they should be easier to feed (brine shrimp tend to 'float'; I have to keep them down with a stick until my brain coral closes in on them). If is safe to feed your LPS such large chunks of food on a regular basis? Do any of you do this?

2) lets say you have an LPS (e.g. Open Brain coral) with 2 'mouths' or more. Do you target feed all the mouths or only 1 mouth?

Thanks.

dont feed brine... they do not contain sufficient nutrition unless you enrich them.

mysis is fine. dont need big pieces of prawn. if u want, small ones will do. and dont feed everyday. once a week is fine. wait till their feeder tentacles emerge then place it on them and let them stick to it and consume.

if u have 2 mouths on ONE coral, feeding one is enough. they are connected.
