Phyto Poll

So I've talked to people that never used phytoplankton and I've talked to people that use it religiously. In both sides tank's the corals look great and healthy. How many of you use phytoplankton?
 
I may add a little every now and then to keep that pods happy, so I chose monthly. I've switched to feeding Pappone and ReefPlus so we'll see how that goes.
 
I picked daily but it was more like every other day!

I have a 75 & 100 gallon!

I not only feed it but I also grow it!

Wow. so it's basically a tie between weekly and never. I myself have done both. When I lived in Dallas and had my 45 gallon reef I dosed phyto at least once a week for about 4 months. After that I kind of slowly forgot to do it until I just didn't do it at all anymore. Probably the last 5 months I didn't dose it. The only real difference that I noticed was that after I stopped, my pom pom xenia thrived and grew all over the place. I dont know if it had anything to do with my not feeding phyto or what.
 
I dose DT's twice a week. Not so much for the corals etc but more for the micro fauna, pods, and other small criters that become part of the overall food chain. I have tons of pods, micro filter feeders and other small life in the tank that I get almost as much enjoyment out of watching as the larger life forms, especially at night.
