one other way ,aside what was mentioned ,is split the food you thawed out into 2 cup ,feed one to the fish and the same time ,give the dendro a blast of food ,,your fish may be busy with whats floating then what the dendro is eat ,,worth a try if you havent also you can use the target feeder to keep the fish and inverts away as the dendro eats |

My dendros only get the food that floats by them when I feed my tank. I can't recall ever hearing that these animals get target fed in the wild. If we feed our tanks once, sometimes twice a day, why would it need more than that? BTW Mike, my damn shrimp are the main culprits when it comes to stealing food ![]() swimmer

I only target feed 2ce a month maybe 3 or 4 if i feel good ,my tank is a mild flow ,so really everything in the tank catches food when i feed Funny thing i have 7 shrimp ,mixed (blood and cleaners ) they never bother my corals ,some how all my tank mates find something to eat do the the low/med flow i have in my tank Mike ,try to reduce the flow in your tank when you feed ,it might help so all your tank mates wont be have to chase the food or steal if from your dendros(corals)
