How often and what do you feed your tank?

[Bobtail1075]

I am making an effort this time do try to do things as best as I can. I want to know what everyone puts into their tank and why. Right now I am only feeding mysid shrimp once a day for my 2 clown fish, sailfin tang, blue spot goby, arrow crab, and snails. I also feed Nori once a day. I am thinking about starting a rotifer culture to feed the coral(?). I want to know what you all put into your tank and why. Hopefully this helps everyone.

Once a day feeding of pellets. I do small pinches at a time until my fish start to lose interest. Its been working for years. I have great color in my fish, all are healthy and havent ever had a problem with ammonia or nitrates.

Hey Ryan do you have coral? What kind of fish do you have?

Currently im only running my 55. Trying to save some money to get an led fixture and then do coral.

Ive only got a vlamingi tang, a cinamon clown, a blue tang, an orbiculate and pajama cardinal, and one green chromis lol. My coral banded shrimp did a number on the school of chromis i had and the firefish. I also have some hermits to pick up any uneaten food.

I feed pe mysis, nutramar ova(fish eggs) and cyclopeeze, all frozen. I also fortify it with selcon, and a bright well aquatics vitamin enricher. Sometimes I feed nls pellets. I feed atleast 2 times daily.

Every day i feed New Life Spectrum Pellets few random times a day. Cyclopeeze at least once every 3/4 days. I also use PE mysis with selcon as a booster additive and nori red green and brown few times a week. For corals ive used Reef Nutrition Oyster Coral Frenzy and Marine Snow. Ive been experimenting between the 3 for a few months and i seem to get the most positive response from Coral frenzy (for sps corals). Im a big tang lover so i feed these fish to keep them fat plus i heavily overskim to keep the high nutrients im pumping in out of the water.
