I keep my tank @ 78, I would not want to go much above 82.

I don't feed my nem's, rbta's.  They get fish poo, and whatever their zoox gives them.  I don't target feed but it is possible they get some of the cyclopeeze, rods', etc. which I feed the tank.

I keep my temp at roughly 78 degrees. I feed my nem some frozen krill every now and then.

I keep mine at 80F.  And the best article you'll probably ever read on the subject is here (http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-05/rhf/index.php).

I'll add that I have an RBTA that is growing nicely.  I don't spot feed it - the Maroon that lives in it takes care of feeding it.

I try to feed my clowns by dropping pellets above the anenome. 1. to try to get them near it to host it. and 2. so that any pellets that they miss fall into the anenome. It will close up on them and eat them. No waste!
My tank is at 79-81.

Since i've started giving mine a chunk of uncooked shrimp every 2 weeks i've noticed a huge growth spurt and not to mention super cool to watch, which was great until he decided he's now too big for the original spot he was in and is now going on a walk about....
