What are your corals eating if you don't feed anything? Even most photosynthetic corals filter nutrients from the water.
There are a lot of sps keepers who do not feed corals (except for adding calcium daily), whereas others have success with adding food to the system. Many photosynthetic corals derive a majority of their energy from feeding and nutrient absorption and I suspect my corals are thriving on zoo plankton and other small water-borne animals, like pods, who reproduce in my system daily and other tiny animals I can't see unless under microscope. Again, without fish, the pods and other tiny animals will thrive and feed the reef by reproduction, etc. I have good SPS growth rates and my corals are getting brighter and more colorful as each week passes.
My upstairs reef is filled with fish, yet I do not specially feed the sps corals in that system as well. I suspect fish droppings add a lot of nutrients to the water for the corals to feed on as well.
SPS corals usually reject phytopankton as a food source, but I suspose I have some small water-borne plants/algae floating around as a food source as well.
