Here's a pic of mine with her feeding tentacles out. It's under T5's about 20 inches from the light. I feed her once or twice a week directly (piece of krill) and some food will get caught in there once in a while, too.

You can try giving yours a little more elbow room and see what happens. Nice looking corals.

Do you feed before or after "lights out"?
Thanks.

I keep mine in a cave to shade it from the T5 and it does great, No feeding here.

Scott,
I feed with lights on, usually when I feed my RBTA. I just place a piece of krill onto those tenticles and she pulls it into her mouth. The coral has two mouths now. I started feeding direct one day when I was feeding the RBTA and saw the feeding tenticles out. Since then, those feeding tenticles are out a lot! You don't have to feed them directly, I just like to.
