IceCap Coral Feeder, 40cm/15in

IceCap Nano Acrylic Coral Target Feeder — 40cm / 15in

The IceCap 15-Inch Nano Coral Feeder (SKU: IC-CF-15) is an authentic, ergonomically optimized husbandry tool distributed by CoralVue to simplify spot-feeding across space-conscious nano reef systems, coral frag tanks, and desktop marine aquariums. In closed reef systems, broadcasting liquid coral foods or pulverized particulate diets straight into the open water column is incredibly inefficient. Strong powerheads sweep nutrients into filter socks, protein skimmer gates, or mechanical roller mats before corals can capture them, wasting food and causing localized nitrate or phosphate spikes. The IC-CF-15 bypasses this filtration loss completely by giving you a short, nimble tool to deposit food directly onto individual coral mouths and polyps.

What sets this 40cm model apart is its streamlined, compact form factor designed for low-clearance aquarium environments. Standard long pipettes are awkward to maneuver over tight rimless desktops or around intricate, small-scale rockwork. The 15-inch clear, heavy-wall acrylic barrel ensures maximum precision, offering a rigid structure that won't warp or wiggle under pressure. At the business end, a specialized non-abrasive soft rubber tip cushions accidental impacts against expanded tissue membranes. Whether you are feeding chunky mysis shrimp to a hungry Acanthophyllia or gently misting fine plankton over a colony of Zoanthids, this tool ensures absolute precision without disrupting your small-scale aquascape.

Key Features:

• Prevents Aggressive Food Stealing: Precision placement lets you deposit food right down into defensive tentacles, ensuring target corals feed successfully before fast-swimming fish or clean-up crews can steal it.

• High Suction Volumetric Capacity: The oversized squeeze bulb generates strong negative pressure, effortlessly pulling up dense particulate slurries, live copepods, or custom blended seafood mashes without stalling.

• Perfect Nano Tank Scaling: Provides professional-grade reef husbandry control in a size profile tailored directly for all-in-one (AIO) desktop systems and fragile propagation shelves.

Note: This target-feeding accessory includes one fixed-length acrylic feeder barrel, one silicone bulb, and one soft rubber tip. Premium coral foods and holding clips are sold under separate product categories.
