Coral 'food'

[OscarWilde]

Hello all

I've expanded my Coral stock quite a bit and was wondering if it was time to start adding some supplements. From the research I have done done of my corals require supplements or target feeding but is there anything that would be beneficial to health and growth?

Many thanks.

Corals are:

Alveopora

Green Star Polyp

Toadstool

Zoanthids (The Apista that sneeked in to teh middle has been nuked and now all the heas are open)

You could do with some phytoplankton for the Alveopora. You don't really need to give the others anything extra at this point in time. If you had lots of hard corals you may need to look into Alkalinity and Cacium and Magnesium supplements, don't forget though, if you add anything, you need to test for it.

Live phytoplankton

Is a link Ben gave to phytoplankton, this has a 3 month shelf life in the fridge, those off ebay would only be a week.

Have to say shibby, I feed all my corals rotifers anyway. I know Bens friend feeds his Goniopora Phytoplankton, seems to be doing well he says, I am sure Ben will tell you more.
