Duncanopsammia food?

I typically give a mixture of mysis and brine, and notice them feeding on some smaller food like cyclopeeze. What do you folks typically feed yours for better growth and overall health?

they will eat just about any aquarium fare including flake. While they do not require direct feeding, they will grow very rapidly if you do.

We use zooplankton substitutes: Coral Frenzy for example. Works very well.

I feed them EVERYTHING. I've even watched them eat a pellet.
