I feed mine mysis, blood woms and what ever else it can catch from water flow. has done great.

Ok can I feed it brime shrimp? So would my liquid phytoplankton work? Would my sps eat that too?

Very few if any corals (if any) will feed on or receive any direct benefit from phytoplankton. You need to target feed your Tubastrea regulalry with meaty foods such as Mysis, Cyclopeeze, or minced shellfish of some type. Brinefish aren't a great choice since the nutritional benefits are minimal.
