    I would like to know besides their natural filter feeding habits ,when spot feeding the Pagoda Cup Coral, AKA, Bowl Coral, Cup Coral, Octopus Coral, Scroll Coral, Vase Coral, Lettuce Coral or Scientific Name: Turbinaria sp.
    does it require all the polyps to be fed or not.

    No, it doesn't. Not like Tubastrea!
    I don't target feed either of mine(large or small polyped scrolls)! I have had them for well over a year and a half with much success.

    According to the book, it states;
    Zooxanthellate, but must be fed with enriched baby brine shrimp, along with occasional adlut Artemia and other foods such as diced silversides. I dont target feed mine, I just dose some phytoplankton and cyclop-eeze, which is this,[​IMG] Luna
