Is cyclopeeze a good food for acroporids?

This is the freezer-bar form and not a liquid suspension.

You are better off with frozen rotifers. Cyclopeeze seems to be a bit large for most acros, but I have seen some of my acros grab some.

That's what I was afraid of.

not to step on any toes - cyclops is definately too large - and I've tried the rotifiers (and am no SPS god) but if you read in the SPS forums, none of the guys that have really nice tanks feed theirs a thing - and you can pretty much do the same for most corals - they seem to get what they need out of the water column from what the fish don't eat, or just amphipods, mysis, and copepods reproducing naturally (get a red filter for a flashlight and check out your tank at night)

Most guys with really nice SPS tanks concentrate on NOT putting any more food than they have to into their tanks - just to keep their fish healthy and happy - and not a scrap more - the cleaner the water - the better they do, and that just translates to less food going in.

Just my .02
