Re: Anybody keeps non-photosynthetic corals and will talk shop?

Here is a photo of my porites and worms



Imagine that rock one year ago covered in orange and blue worms. All of the orange ones and most of the blue ones perished in the crash and Three blues and one white worm remain. I believe the blues are Spirobranchus giganteus but I'm not a worm expert (or any kind of expert really). I don't feed them directly, I probably should because this guy...

Sabellastarte magnifica I do feed with DT's phyto and he is flourishing. Both kinds of worms are in high flow areas, especially Mr. Magnifica. I believe the Spiro g's are getting some phyto also because I turn off the skimmer from 10pm-2am and feed between 10:45pm-11pm. I also feed a very small portion to the fish at 9am. I am running a fairly large refugium (55g) as well which I think helps. Any other Q's let me know.

Do you (or anyone) think I should be feeding the Christmas Tree worms directly with phyto? I don't want to put much in the tank because I got a nasty algae bloom because of it once. I use 1 tsp/night. I wonder if I fed them would they multiply...
