I dont know for sure what your supposed to feed them but mine eats diced clams and I mix in some brine shrimp. I use a turkey baster to keep the fish from eating the food.

clown-t,
As with other brain corals, the welsophyllia will eat meaty foods. Just place a pc of it on the coral and the coral will extend its feeding tentacles. Gia

Reefhead,
Sorry, I didn’t get you e-mail, but here goes. Wellsophyllia radiata does require meaty foods. I feed this bruiser the equivalent of a medium tiger shrimp or half of a silverside a week. Regards, Scott Passe

Usually in the am mine swells up and his feeders come out . I place the food in the feeders and he takes it in. For me this is the only time I have been able to get it to eat.
