Seafan ID and care please

[Raed]

I have this Seafan and it is doing well, I have been feeding roids, phytoplankton, reef chili but can't confirm which is the right food for it as he polyps are tiny and hard to see if they are actually eating. Does anyone know the name so I can do more research on it? And anyone had them before and would have tips on how to keep them healthy?

That's what I saw online too but it says it is photosynthetic? I'm a bit confused

WOW, thats beautiful!
seafans likes plently of water flow.. let me know if you ever decide to frag it!!

I have my WAV pumps at pulse mode at 85% so they have a pretty good flow. I have no idea how to frag it yet, need to make sure it is healthy before messing with it
It was a good find at reefapalooza as I have never seen this at the retail stores

good luck with it...

Thank you, I have been feeding it whatever I get my hands on until I really know what food it really eats. It is the star of the tank and don't want to lose it

try anything that's good for Filter Feeders..

Exactly. Just ordered doc's Eco egg brew and have been feeding roids and chilli and phytoplankton. The polyps are pretty small so I have a feeling they will need more liquid based foods.
