Did you know that corals need food to thrive, even though they rely on photosynthesis? Did you know that corals have mouths for a reason? Many corals dedicate a significant portion of their biology to capturing food, and even light-dependent SPS corals benefit greatly. Feeding your corals will make a huge difference. Their colours become more vibrant, they grow faster, and their health improves.
At Zeo Box Reef, we trust Coral Essentials Food and Supplements for outstanding results. Their rigorous research at the Sustainable Reefs Coral Farm in Australia guarantees the effectiveness of their products.
Which Coral Essential Coral Foods should I use?
For beguiner aquarists we highly recommend starting off with:
Feeding your corals has never been simpler. You can use Coral Power Food with a syringe for precise spot feeding or distribute it evenly to your whole aquarium when your flow pumps are turned off. Here's how to do it:
1. Mix 1 teaspoon of Coral Power Food with 500ml of aquarium water. 2. Turn off your flow pumps and add to your aquarium, allow the food to settle for 20 minutes. 3. Don't forget to turn your flow pumps back on after feeding. Alternately many flow pumps have built in feed modes which you can use. We never reccomend turning off your return pump.
It's that easy! Your corals will thank you for the delicious and nutritious meal. We recommend feeding your coral 1-2 times per week.
For the ultimate in coral coloration, growth, and vitality, we've got a winning combination for you. We recommend a blend of three fantastic liquid foods:

Option 2: Manual Dosing (Daily with a Syringe) - If you prefer a hands-on approach, you can dose these foods manually every day using a simple syringe.
The best part? These premixed foods don't need refrigeration, making them super convenient. Just choose the size you want.
Concentrated versions of Amino Ready and GRO Ready

Just follow the dosage recommendations based on your aquarium size, as indicated on the bottle. Please note that the bottles of Coral Power Amino and Coral Power Gro should be refrigerated.
But here's a bonus: CVE+ doesn't require refrigeration, so it's even more user-friendly.
Feeding your corals is essential for a healthy reef. Many coral losses result from poor nutrition and water quality.
