and they all seem to be growing much faster. I feed mysis and brine and silversides, but tonight I thought I would try pellets and they all took them.
Started feeding my ricordias

What kinda pellets are you feeding them?
A good brand that I use is ocean nutrition formula one marine pellets. The small size. I've also aquired some formula two wich is less meaty and more algae based. I feed my ricordeas, anemones and fish. Hermits come running too. Come to think of it so do the big brittle stars. Almost everything likes this stuff. Even one of my big solomon green clavularia ate one once. I put some in a small dish and then suck them into a turkey baster and drop them on the coral gently.

I just started feeding mine as well. Check this hungry ric out! He's eating about 4 or 5 mysis shrimp and a number of cyclopeeze zooplankton that were merinated in selcon over night. My rics loved it. They couldn't get enough!
They even ate flake food the other night.

And its just not Rics, my Fluffy Shrooms love feeding time:
Yeah my hairy shrooms ("fluffy shrooms" -- never heard them called that before lol) love to be fed too, and they have a much more dramatic feeding response than my rics.
Some of my discosoma shrooms like to be fed too, their response is pretty dramatic as well, very similar to the hairy shrooms, but they curl up even tighter around the food and take longer to digest it. It is all pretty cool to watch.
I love feeding time!

That's what I have. Good food.
I like that picture from Kiknchikn. I also saw someone in a link on this site, I forget where, drop a blizzard of frozen brine shrimp into his 125 gallon soft coral aquarium. I want to try that once. Truth is your corals love food. The more sterile your environment the more likely they need a good feed.

kiknchikn: what is selcon? I've never heard anyone referance that before.
It's a product made by American Marine, Inc. that is basically a concentrated fish/coral/invert food booster composed of highly unsaturated fatty acids, marine lipids, and vitamins C and B12.
You basically mix food into it to make the food even more nutritious.
