DT's Phytoplankton is what you're going to see ercommended most. I use it and my acros, other SPS, clam, LPS, and anemone are all doing quite well. So it must be doing something. I also have the Kent Marine Micro-Vert that I throw in every once in a while, too. If you're new to the hobby, though, SPS probably aren't the right thing to go with. I'd stick with zoos and ricordias, then move to softies. Then you can upgrade your lighting for SPS and LPS. You can feed an acro all the crap you want, but if you don't have a strong MH over it, what's the use? ???

 

Just my 2c... Goodnight...

Many lps need bigger foods, such as krill or chunks of cocktail shrimp.

I would go with Dt's or Frozen Cyclop-eeze.
