You can teach it to extend it's tenticles by taking some food and squeezing it in the water colum (release some food juice ) this should trigger the brain to extend.
Once it's done this - just feed your tank as normal and he should catch a few pieces... If he doesn't, oh well.. They can do just fine without it.

usually a few minutes after the main lights go out a brain like that will extend its feeder tenticles and you can feed it then.
Or if you squirt a little food in the water column when lights are on they will sometimes extend the feeders.

squirt alittle food?? how do you do that?

 

[birdy]

Well I thaw out frozen foods like mysis and formula 1&2 and occasionally brine shrimp. Then I suck them up in a syringe, and squirt food to each coral.
