Awesome video, those fish went nuts for the food. Love that, my fish get fed usually twice a day and always act like they are starving and attack the food like crazy.

Used to not do as much or as often. Had a few sps die and even a few torches. Once I started to do weekly bigger water changes seem all my corals are doing better. I also can feed my fish almost double without having to worry about nutrients. So manybthe corals are doing better with all that extra feeding.

I'm sure the corals are very happy with 100g water change per week

Feeding time
Your fish make my fish look like snobs. My fish will certainly get excited when it’s feeding time (twice a day) but most of them are picky about what they chose to eat from my semi-DIY reef blend (mix of pods, PE mysis, mini-mysis, brine shrimp, 3-4 different dry foods, garlic extract and selcon all mixed up and frozen into mini-cubes). The only one that reacts even close to that is my cardinal fish. The others just kinda pick and choose. I wish they’d attack the food like that though considering how much work I put into mixing it up, freezing it and feeding them twice a day. The picky, spoiled little bastards.
EDIT: at least my little herd of nassarius snails appreciate my work and dedication.

Yes they aren’t shy at all. I feed with a little bowl. Sometimes they will swim into it when I feed them.
