I've seen acrylic feeding sticks at the LFS for sale. I forget who makes them, though. Apparenly it claims to be "invisible" to fish. I'm sure you could go and just get a bamboo skewer to do the same (but less stealthy) job.

I have heard of cutting a 2-liter bottle in half and using the end with the cap. Place the cap at the top and make a dome over the corals. Place food from the top, where the cap is, and it should float down. I am planning on trying this method tonight to see how well it works.
