Like always: Feed the Tank and let the tank feed your Inverts.

Try some Planton (I use San Francisco Bay brand frozen 1 cm cubes, diluted & thawed in RO) and someenriched newly hatched Artemia.

Remember to size the Food to the "animals" mouth. If the food your using is too large, you'll starve them.

Ever try eating a whole watermelon??

If you want good growth you want a high impact food. Cut off flow for awhile and use a turkey baster to place some small chunks of blended smelt/shrimp/scallops/vitamins/etc (homemade food).

Rics will readily take good size chunks and will increase their growth rate.
