Should i give them an added food source

so im thinking my inverts are hungry. I no longer have any algae on my rocks except for corraline and the common film algae on my glass, i have caught my emerald crab climbing on my corals, but it has been confirmed that he was more than likely not picking at the corals themselve. And besides the crab i also have an urchin and other typical inverts like blue leg hermits and a bunch of snails. Oh yea i also have a cleaner shrimp thats always poking at the rocks as well

So you think i should add some food for them, i dont want anybody going hungry and whenever i feed my fish they all go nuts over the fish food, which makes me think they are hungry and dont have enough food on the rocks for everyone

 

Hmm I'm not sure about that.. But I'm guessing they have enough food, if there is always some film algae then I would think that's food?

Sorry I couldn't be much help but someone will surely come and help

 

i only see the ceriths and nerites on the glass, so that would be enough for them, once in a while my urchin will climb on there, i dont think i will have to worry about him to much because i have coralline on my rocks the he could eat if need be

 

If you have coralline I would not worry about anything to add. You can buy Algae Wafer's if you want though.

 

so just any kind of algae wafers would work?

 

I use the sinking kind, cant remember the name. You can also get some norie for the emerald crab, mine loves it.

 

i think petco sells the hikari algae wafers, i used to get that for my cory cats when i had a little freshwater tank, ill look into the nori, would it be in the dry goods or freezer section at the lfs?

 

Petco has it in the dry food area, its in these foil like bags. And I think that's the kind of wafers I have too, got them at Petco.

 

i have to go to petco today or tomorrow for some crickets, i'll check for the algae waffers and see if the have the norie, my petco is a freshwater only so ill see if they have any, and my lfs is moving so im not sure if they will have it instock until they finish relocating
