what I would try is "chumming" I usually squirt a tiny bit straight into the water columm. what this does is stimulate the corals so the feeders extend. I then wait a few minutes for the corals to get into "feeding mode" when the feeders are extended. this makes it easier for them to grab the food and they pull it in quicker.
Thanks Greg! I turn off the filter and pour a smidge of Marine Snow into the flow of the powerhead after the lights go out... I see tentacles evrywhere! They have a great response but just not enough time to eat before their food is stolen away... kind of like that annoying friend at dinner who grabs food off your plate and then says "you're not gonna eat that, are you?"
I can't wait for the new tank to be ready! It's going well so far; ammonia is down to 1.5, nitrites at 2, and nitrates at 5... I'm testing every other day, eager to see lots of 0's!
