I love oyster feast. It's a great coral food. I agree corals love it. I also spot feed and mix it with brine , mysis, along with some cyclopeeze!

Great thing about Oyster Feast is that a little goes a long way. At first I didn't think I was feeding enough then one day I looked in the tank at just the right angle so that the light caught all the stuff floating in the water. It's incredible how much stuff is in a squirt of that stuff. It looked like a mini blizzard in my tank. As Emerald mentioned, when you feed it makes feeding other corals easier because they really open up. I usually take the opportunity to stick a silverside in my scoly and lobos. When I really want kick it up a notch I'll thaw some frozen cubes, add mysis and cyclopeeze, and put in a few squirts of Oyster Feast. Mix that into a soup and into the tank. Fish just freak out. I don't know if it's the different aromas in the water or what but they definitely get busy.

Good point Mike! It does seem to make the corals open up. I also noticed when I added cyclopeeze that really got my acans to open up during feeding so I didn't have to night feed. I do the same thing where I make this oyster feast "soup" and target feed the corals! It's fun and they grow faster!
