Feeding regime goes as this:

Daily
Using a fishmate auto feeder, feed dry into a feeding ring, Fauna Marin Ultra Seafan, Fauna Marin Ultra Clam, Fauna Marin Ultramin F in each compartment of the feeder. This is fed 4x a day, each time over a 2 hour period, continuously 24/7.

Daily 7am
FM UltraMin D and FM UltraMin S

Daily
Reef Nutrition Rotifeast at 6:30am and 6pm dosed manually
Reef Nutrition OysterFeast at 7am dosed manually
Reef Nutrition Shellfish Diet at 7pm dosed manually

Daily at 6pm
frozen mysis shrimp

Daily at 8pm
frozen cyclop-eeze

Feather stars love Ultra min F! I mix in 1/2 a cup of tank water: an 1/8th of a teaspoon of Ultra Min F, frozen cyclop-eeze, 1ml of Reef Nutrition OysterFeast. Then I dose the feather stars directly using a Kent Sea Squirt.

hi,

beautiful tank. i can't believe i didn't see this thread until now.

perhaps you can help me identify these. i received them in a trade as pink dendro's around aug. of 2009. they have not changed in size one bit ...they'll feed on almost any kind of food offered, marine snow/reef snow, mysis shrimp, chromamax, cyclop-eeze, even pellets that fell on top.
any tips/suggestions?

thanks, tom

I have been tossing the idea around of automating the liquid feeding. This would require the liquid foods to be refrigerated also. I saw an amazing set-up on how Steve Weast feeds his coldwater system. This made me really start to think.

So right now I am looking at controllers, either an APEX or RKE. Both could easily handle my needs.
