I use some stainless steel tweezers and hold a small piece of food in them and when the candycane or whatever you are feeding grab onto it let it go and thats it. feeding this way is not for everybody as it will take up to an hour to hand feed everything in the tank from zoas and palys to candycanes and hammers. I also hand feed my peppermint shrimp, elephant ear, and lobophyllia. I have seen an incredible change in everything using regular hand feedings. Plus it is really cheap to make your own food from fish(non-oily), shrimp(wild caught), and clams. Living close to the ocean definitely helps with access to fresh seafood.
