Anybody feed

[julius]

Anyone out here use phytoplankton to feed there tanks.

I do. Not the live stuff though, I'm not made of money.
I figure preservatives are good enough for me, they're good enough for my family...er, I mean corals.

 

[julius]

How often do u use it.

 

[tizzo]

Not very. I hafta scrape my glass so that supplies a lot of it already, but I target my efflorescence and monti caps and digi about once every week and a half or so. Basically when I feel like it, I don't really have a set schedule. I use 10 ml when I do it though. About 2 ml for each piece of SPS.

Cool I use it before awhile back and I just recently bought some more the label says i spoonful per 20gal everyday thats kinda too much dont you think. I also use mine once a week or so.

 

[tizzo]

Yeah, I tried the DT's once and followed the directions and didn't see any difference in anything, so I figure I'll just spot feed like I do everything else...

 

[julius]

Cool thats what I'm doing I see no use of using it everyday.

Hiya,
I feed DT every other day, two tablespoons. I've only got four corals and I do scrap my algea. Should I go to once or twice a week?

Thats a lot 2 tablespoons. I only use small amounts its gonna spread around the entire tank anyway. I use that little spoon mines come with.
