They have mucus and bacteria products that these are suppose to feed on. truthfully no one knows but better to throw the kitchen sink at them.
+1 on the Fauna Marin

I have a plastic case about the size of a shoebox filled with frozen foods for feeding my nps collection but still add FM to every one. I would try the Ultra Min F and Ultra Sea Fan for smaller polyps. I would definitely consider target feeding if those are added; they're powerful stuff and wouldn't want it settling all over My tank! Great stuff and while I can't say it has kept all my nps in the shape they are, I personally believe it has helped and I'm not about to change what has worked thus far!
