Target feed frogspawn/hammer coral?

Does anybody target feed? If so what do you use?

Occasionally with tigger pods, but mostly I just add 5-10 mls to the sump and let it circulate in the tank while the pumps are in "feed-mode".

Mine grab flake from the water and will take bits of shrimp when I target feed. Keep your chunks small though

I feed mysis PE every once in a while.

What do you mean by when the pumps are in feed mode?

I rarely target feed any of my euphylia but they host my clowns so I'm sure they get taken care of if you know what I mean....

You don't have to do it. Just throw the food in it and the flow will bring it to it.

I occasionally broadcast-feed all in the tank with Oyster Eggs
