00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[Fishy Guy]

I know I've asked this before but how often do you all feed your tanks? I got an auto-feeder for pellets I'm setting up. I will still do frozen at least several days a week as well.

I only feed once a day.

I split one feeding in half and feed in the morning and the evening.

Right now I am increasing the meals, before I gave food once a day, now 2 or 3 times a day and to the corals 2 or 3 times a week and pythoplankton 1 or 2 times a week

7-12 times per day ...

I run the Avast Plank once a day and have 3 other auto feeders 2 times a day and I give Phyto and pods occasionally and I toss some extra flake to fatten the Leopard once or twice a day and then sometimes I'll toss in some extra Krill pellets because why not and then when I add frozen or broadcast for the corals...

I find it interesting Tim that even with so many feedings you still have to dose No3 and Po4.

Just PO4, nitrates are good. Hard corals soak up phosphates as do "new" rocks and sand. Keep in mind at least half of my rocks I made for this tank.

Wait, is this a joke?

Nope!

 

[Fishy Guy]

Nope!

Is this multiple tanks?

No...

 

[JoJosReef]

4 scheduled feedings (Avast Plank + liquid food doser) and a few feedings sprinkled in between. So about 7 feedings on weekdays. Only 4 feedings on weekends since I'm not in office.

 

[Linlox]

4-7 times a day, nori always in the tank if lights are on. Manual feed (flakes, pellets, frozen brine or mysis) every 1-2 hours.

Hey @JoJosReef , you have the same yellow wrasse as I do right?

I used to have a very healthy pod population, even when the lights were on there would be a dozen or so scurrying on the glass in the upper back corners. The only thing that has changed is the new addition. Is he just a piggy decimation my pod population?

After adding my leopard and yellow wrasse, I only see pods at night. They decimate pods on glass. I also have two pinkies that will decimate pods on rocks, too.

If you are thinking about a mandarin, I might suggest Biota captive bred and getting a baby brine hatchery + printed reef BBS mandarin feeder:
