When to feed?

When do you feed brain corals and how often and how much? Thanks!

I feed my Trachy.'s during the day. Just lay some krill, silversides, or mysis on their mouth.

and if you can do that without, shrimp, fish, bristleworms or flow carrying it right off, then wait til the feeder tentacles are out

I have to had feed open polyps, and I usually just give a single mysis per polyp unless I have lots of time and ambition, then I feed them until they won't take more.

You can always turn off your flow for a few minutes to give them time to start ingesting .. or do the upside down butt end of a soda bottle so they have a little cave of undisturbed dining area

I just squirted 1 peice of mysis shrimp by one of its mouths but nothing happened, what signs do you look for to when it wants to feed?

K, actinics came on and the tentacles came out, maybe thats normal but I was noticing they came out when lights off, maybe this is different today that they came out during actinics, maybe its wanting food? I will try again tomorrow.
