Wrong light spectrum or intensity and they'll just stay alive, what are you runnin'.

If you are talking about yellow colonial polyps, then yes, feeding them will cause them to reproduce very quickly--although they would need something more substantial than DT's. If you are talking about most of the zoanthids, then no, they won't really use the kind of feeding that we are giving our tanks. Like Keven said, good light and good water quality and they will multiply nicely.

i have the standard lighting that comes with the new jbj nano cube...since i got the polyps, about 2 1/2 weeks ago, they've gotten so much bigger when they open up. my salinity is about 1.021
