Planning a TBS LR Purchase - Part 2

[MrKite]

I'm adding a TBS Package to a Fish-Only tank.

There are:

3 Green Chromis
2 Clarkii Clowns
1 Yellow Tang
1 Coral Beauty
2 Cleaner Shrimp
6 Blue-leg Hermit Crabs

I feed a marine flake daily, and frozen foods occasionally, mostly brine shrimp.

After I put in the hundreds of critters that are sure to arrive on the TBS rock, I wonder what I should feed the tank then?

What do corals eat? What do sponges eat? What do anemone eat?

How, exactly, should my feeding regimen change as a result of adding TBS rock?

Thanks,

well the only thing i add for filter feeder including corals, clams feather dusters etc is DTs live plankton unreal the effects of this.

as far as anemones, brains and even cup corals i feed brineshrimp, silverside and things along that line

fish i feed prepared seaweed, flake spurilina, brine shrimp etc.

well all the critters in the package are scavengers they eat algea and whatevers left over or what they steal, among other biproducts in the tank. i doubt they will starve if you have growing algea and feed your tank on a regular basis

brine shrimp, unless enriched with vitimins or phyto are the equilivent of popcorn. They have very little nutritional value compared to other things like mysis, or even better blender seafood surprise.
