DIY Sun Coral food.....

Normally, I feed my sun coral mysis shrimp every other day.....when i went to the LFS today to pick up some more, he recommended krill. So I fed them some krill this evening....but even if I chop it up, some chunks are still too large for the smaller polyps......so I though about blending mysis and krill in the blender and mixing it together? What do you think? Is there anything else you guys think would be a good idea to throw in there?

krill is much too big for the sun corals so you need to have it blended up.

You can use cyclopeez, fish flakes, fish pellets, mysis, brine shrimp, squid, mussels, clams, shrimp, and basically any other fish food you see and blend it all up.

melevsreef.com has page on food he makes for his tank, it can also be used to feed sun corals.
