Coral feeding

[reef321]

What do you feed your hammer coral, if you do?
I've tried feeding mine brine shrimp, but it won't eat them.
Any ideas on what it might like?

They are mostly photosynthetic, you really don't need to feed them. They will also filter feed what every passes by in the water column.

I feed mine Mysis, Flake, Pellets, Cyclopeeze. All are readily taken in. My hammer has been static as far as growth for a long time. After feeding a few times a week for the past several weeks, there are 3 new buds growing and will soon be new heads. I agree they do not "need" to be fed to survive but expand more and grow faster when fed.

They are photosnthetic but they have a large mouth, Confusing .tried many times but did not see them eat food particles.
