How do you go about setting up a feeding station? I've read several posts and still do not understand how you get the food to stay. Do you turn off all flow? Thanks!

i made a cylander out of screen material with a cap on one end. when i feed live brine i would add some to it and it in the tank and they would suck them out of the screen. worked like a charm.

What am I missing? How does the food stay in there?

Soak it in aquarium water first.

I unplug my pump when I feed. Otherwise the mysis blow everywhere and my spoiled fish won't chase it!

Sunpolyps get real happy, though....

Well... that was easy! I set one up last night and this morning when I put the tube in, the SH's came over to check out what was going on. As soon as I took the tube out, they both began eating out of the bowl. Beginner's luck I guess! Thanks for all the help!

I got these from Seahorse USA. I don't know for sure if they do but they must use something. These two took right to it and have used it ever since.
