Anybody out there skip a days feeding, I've found that if I skip a day usually Sunday, the Fish will Graze a bit more or dig at the sand. Anybody else do that?

I skip the odd, odd feeding only because some nights I just dont have the time. I keep them full though to prevent any coral nipping.

I used to feed my tank every other day. But I found that my fox face would nip at my forest fire digi and I just added a small niger trigger so I now feed two smaller feedings a day. I am very cautious never to over feed tho.

my angel of 1.5 yrs never touched a coral and then i cut back on feeding to reduce po4 and it started to snack on my corals :(
learned two things that day, never add a high risk fish, never cut back on feedings,

I skip a lot.  I try and make it up some days, but I think I've gone 3 days without a feeding before.  The beauty of having sps... pretty hardy against almost anything except triggers.
