Target Feeding

So I acquired a Duncan coral and went to Live Aquaria to reaserch care, then off to lfs for proper foods.

This coral has three heads that come out of a central base. Do I target feed all three heads or are they "connected" and only one has to receive the food?


Thanks,
Ken

I never feed mine and it won't stop growing.

I just feel that guy doesn't need to be encouraged. He's cocky enough as it is.

Each head should be fed, systemically they are connected but each would benefit from a feeding.

How much deeper would the ocean be if it didn't have sponges?

Personally I like to target feed mine (each head) once a week. Like squid said they do grow very fast!
