Target feeding

[Marz]

I am 2 days into owning any type of coral, so bare with me. Does anyone know where I can get a pipette or long thin turkey "like" baster? I have been reading voraciously and although target feeding appears to not be necessary for the frags I have, it appears that it doesn't hurt and may in fact be beneficial. I am all in on making sure these survive, so any direction would be great.
I would also start with cyclop-eez, and I have NLS pellets that will work as well.

Reef roids works great to for zoas and ricordia, and id just got to the dollar store and buy a turkey baster thats what i use.

K, I will try my baster first.

Interested in this "Julian's thing"

 

[Marz]

Lol...I am good with the baster for now...kinda pricey for Julian's thing

I use a turkey baster with 18 inches of rigid tubing glued to the end, depending on the baster the tubing might fit tight without glue.

i bought a julians thing a while ago and was not impressed. easier to use a normal syringe with a piece of 1/4 pipe stuck in the end. just food for thought

I might give this a shot as well, better control I would think.

I tried the turkey baster and was able to get a pellet to the ric...not sure about the Zoa but will try again this weekend. Thanks everyone!

That's a fantastic idea, think I'm gonna rig that up next time I spot feed!
