If you scolymia has big enough mouth, you may try to give the food of a larger size, larger, than clown's mouth.
Here is mine, the chromises are 2/3 of percula clown by size:
And between feedings:
Another way may be to feed fish before coral, and later let it to pick from the coral's food, all what the fish's heart desires - I took this phylosophycal approach in the thank with the big sun coral, which has to be fed by the small-sized food. Everybody, including the puffer and percula, that also hosts the green hairy mushrooms, joins the feast.
If the tank setup is able to process all this food input, of course.
To Matthew:
if tools - from pipette coming with Nutrafin test kits, fine-nosed tweezers, if tank is shallow; if deep - the rigid tubing 5/16" or so with the baby nose sucker (rubber thing) attached.
if food - mainly the chopped grocery seafood. The coral will appreciate the Ocean Plankton and mysis shrimp as well, even the chopped krill.
