In my Knowledge(i could be wrong) Frogs-spawns wont eat that food that big. They get most of there nutrition from there zooxanthellae algae. You can feed them meaty things but that shrimp is too big. You should try feeding it Brine shrimp or micro-plankton but like i said they get most of they nutrition from light so feeding it brine or plankton may not do you that much good. Just be patient It will grow.

o ok yea i gave up on big shrimp that some of my other coral take as i relized it had to be to big. but what i dont understand is when they grow do they grow like another head with another skeleton structure ? and i thought they would sting my fish like my wrasse but it diddent , by the way thanks for the answer

They would like small meaty bits of food like cyclops and brine. This may help , GL..

Dead on dude.

Also your Frogspawn will grow and split on its own.
This is mine when I first got it about 18 months ago. A ten dollar frag from ebay
This is it now. Nothing but light.

These coral have great food capture ability. They can stretch there poylps up to 6 inches. Good lighting , flow and calcium levels also important. Look here under euphyllia. GL..

i feed mine mysis shrimp once a week it seems to like it alot. it will close in to eat the shrimp then it will open up more than normal for an hour or so. as it digests the shrimp it will release any unwanted debris. stringy spit lookin stuff. ive had mine for a few weeks and i can notice a difference in size. I have some pics of my frogspawn eating posed on this site.

WHAT ONLY 18 Months and its that big!!!! WOW thats good!! i have had mine for about 8 months and not an ounce of growth but i thik this is because my magnesium levels are really reallly messed up. s i am fixing it today hopefully that will help but how much flow do the like alot medium or very little??? and its hard to find a good spot for it where it wont touch another coral so it wont sting it.

I got mine for 15$ 6-7 months ago. It had 3 heads then.....now it has 8 and growing a 9th. What do I feed mine? Nothing. I give it the proper light and flow, make sure CA is good and thats it.
