Feeding LPS with shrimps in the tank

[Len]

Any suggestions? My three shrimps are expert food stealers.

The old soda bottle trick? Cut off the bottom and place over the top of the coral you want to target feed. Feed through the neck (cut off the narrow neck beforehand maybe) and leave it over until the coral has taken the food in.

Or, give the shrimp(s) a bigger chunk of food than your giving to the LPS.

You could always invite _Andy round for dinner.

Yup, always feed the shrimp first

Feed smaller food, it might look like mysis is good for them, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're really getting over stuffed from it, I believe they can (and prefer) smaller planktonic food.

Teach the shrimp to fear the turkey baster. They don't like a blast to the face.

Then feed them first. Actually I find feeding the whole tank, then the shrimo, then target feeding works best for me.
