    Candy canes expelling food

    Hey guys I’ve been feeding my kryptonute candy canes daily. It’s a smal frag with two heads. Today they expelled the pellets I gave them. Am I just feeding them too much? They’re doing great, even healing from a small wound they suffered.

    Do You Feed Your Corals Before or After Your Water Changes?
