Anything in particular you would recommend? Currently I feed my tank Brightwell Reef Snow, Continuum's Micro Blast, 1 cube PE Mysis and a 1/2 cube each of San Francisco's saltwater Multi-Pack. I mix it all together usually and attempt to target feed but have never had them "Grab" anything I could visually see. Do you think they would pull enough out of the column or should I try something else ;)

Put a cone over them if you can and saturate them with the food so your are sure they are getting some it it. Here is it looks like (the cone is made from a 2 liter bottle of soda). Put over them as best as you can and then squirt the food inside and hold it in place for a few minutes, and they will get plenty of food. I use a mixture too of frozen but add cyclop-eeze to it and vitamins and fish oil.

Try turning flow off and feeding them like chalice, they will respond quickly i'm sure! The cone is a great method too if turning flow off is a pain.

i'd suggest chopped mysis (they can prob eat wide variety tho).

This thread has some sweet mushies!

Yes they are great additions indeed and so easy to care for and when fed they will split and bud and multiply as is what happened in my own tank ..

Great price and it does look good indeed, and you are right the color seems skewed towards that purple a bit too much ... but still a good shot !
