    Just looking for some views on what others are using for food on certain tank-mates.
    I have an open brain, 2 anenomes, and 2 plate corals that I've been feeding just krill. They gobble it up and look fantastic. Just wondering what everyone else is using and if there would be any benefits to feeding them something else as well.

    Krill is fine for those along with items like Silversides and Mysis shrimp would be good as well

    Thanks Shawn. How about a colt coral. I also have a couple of filter feeders -- a deep sea yellow gorgonian and an orange tree sponge. and two feather dusters.
    Thanks again. Mike

    The colt really doesn't need to be fed anything but light. As for the gorg and the sponge maybe things like DT's, Liquid Life Bioplankton, CoralPlankton, and Dt's Oyster eggs
