So, the Tank of Doom (see previous thread) is now fishless and will remain so for a long time to try and starve out whatever sort of parasite may have done in my fish (10 weeks is my target).
My question is what/how often to feed (if at all)? Despite the loss of the fish, the tank is actually pretty well balanced right now in terms of nitrates, phospate, salinity, etc. Algae is minimal and eaten by the clean up crew. I don't want to over do it but also don't want the animals to be hungry.
Inhabitants are 2 rock urchins, various snails, limpets, hitchhiking brittle stars, 2 hermits as well as cup coral hitchhikers, a giant hitchhiking anenome (mutant aptaisia maybe, but it's big and doesn't spread), xenias, unidentified tree coral, mushroom polyps and two caribbean rose coral hitchhikers (nice sized).
Thoughts on how to feed that crew with no fish producing leftovers and not overfeeding? Thanks!
