Wanted to start this poll to see results on what everyone does in terms of feeding there Anthias. 3x a day, or what?
 
6 Dispar, 2 Evansi & 3 Purple Queen - AutoFeeder with a mixture of pellets and Cyclopeeze 5x a day. And then I add frozen cubes or Reef Nutrition foods 1x a day.

Usually 2 times a day. Im really not feeling it though. Think im going for some other fish that doesnt need this heavy feeding :)
 
trio of Lyrtails, pair of Sunburts, Purple Queen, Dispars, Bartletts...I literally use about a dozen different frozen foods ..Rods, NutrMAr etc.. pellets, flakes changing day.. thaw, rinse and put it in a cup. I then pour alittle in each time I pass the tank...so multiple feedings each day.
 
Been doing 2-3 x daily, but wish I could do 1x daily. Algae from p04 is being generated a little too much for my taste.

For those who answered this poll, can you also please describe your water change schedule?

Did you do anything special to get them to eat the dry food? And then where do you get your Cyclopeeze? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks.

Do you have a High Rated Skimmer?

Are you running GFO?

Do you use Filter Socks?

I feed 2-3 times per day and I have very little algae and I believe it is because of these 3 aspects of my system. I don't believe you can really solve an algae problem with water changes unless you are doing very large and frequent water changes.
