I just bought a good size Pearl Coral. Looks great in my tank. I have heard different stories on if i feed it on not, so could someone set me stright?
I was told that if I have really realy good lighting I don't need to feed it. But If I have poor lighting I should feed it. I only have flouresent.
If I have to feed it I guess it can eat anything meaty. Do I just place in on top of coral? THANKS

we feed ours at night when it's sweeper tentalcles come out, we give it a small chunk of shrimp every 3 days. So far so good.

There is a product called DT's phytoplankton. It will actually take care of most, if not all of your feeding needs. It is super concentrated, so it lasts awhile. I stopped feeling all of my inverts things like shrimp after I started using it. Your use it in the middle of the day. My inverts have grown like crazy since I started using it.

I feed mine during the day when it is expanded. Just place a piece of shrimp in the tissue and it will move it into its mouth. Really neat to watch.
