Which corals are you referring to? Different corals need different feeding methods.

I dont see any problem mixing foods .
I use frozen cubes as well as rotifilers(s/p)frozen and mix them ,this i use for my sun coral and spot feed every 2 to 3 days. same with the bubble and anemone.
I use the the liquid for the rest ,every 2 days ........except the carnation coral ,if i notice that coral is sagging a bit i will spot feed x2 a day untill it looks better then spot feed once day .
Its sometimes hard to tell .
You seem to be feeding well
As cat says it depends on the coral you have

I agree. As far as times to feed, most corals are more receptive to prey capture during the night hours.
