So I got a Duncan from a friend of mine last night, I know placing it towards the bottom with moderate flow will be good but what do I feed it? Meaty foods? Phyto Pheast? Oyster feast? Hydro Phoenix ------------- recent absurdity..Unicorns have rabies |

+1 to what Tyler said. Moderate flow, and moderate to low lighting with feedings once or twice a week and you'll be golden. ------------- Steve http://utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40637&PID=356246" rel="nofollow - My Old 180G Mixed Reef Currently: 120G Wavefront Mixed 29G Seahorse & Softies Running ReefAngel Plus x2 435-8 |

We also feed it mysis. We also feed our tanks GP diet from BSD and they seriously look like twice the size heads since we started that. Nice a poofy :). Pam |

It is from Brine Shrimp Direct. It come in a powder form.. it seriously is amazing! It makes all our coral look amazing. It's GP reef diet. We feed twice a week in our 110 and we only use not even a half teaspoon of it. I would highly recommend. Brine Shrimp Direct is amazing! Pam |

You really dont need to feed a duncan, they are photosynthetic and dont require the feeding but if you like them to grow fast it sure speeds up the growth. ------------- 120 ASM G-3 T-5 lighting 130 frag system T-5 lighting asm G-1x |
