Feeding LPS?

I have an open brain, frogspawn and duncan coral. Do you feed these? What would you feed them as well as how often?
 
I usually feed a combination of PE mysis and cyclopeze. I first drop in a few shrimp pellets to get the scent/taste of food in the water so the feeder tentcles of the LPS come out, I then soak my food in combination of tank water, selcon and garlic extreme for about 15 minutes...Do a light broadcast feed to distract the fish then target feed my LPS. This will give your LPS time to consume whatever it is you feed so you're fish/inverts are not stealing it away.

I usually feed my LPS when I feed my fish frozen food...which is about every 3 days. My frogspawn doesn't usually except food, but my duncan gobbles it right up. No experience with open brain, but from what I have seen they will definately take food.
 
I have a plate, dendros, acans, and a few types of euphyllia. I feed them all mysis shrimp and they love it.
 
Ive been using Coral Frenzy for the past few months and seen some good reaction. Its also nice since its dried thus requiring no refrigeration like many other foods.
