I have unfortunately had some unexplained fish loss so will be going fallow for a good while. Currently I only have xenia and zoas in my tank (and some inverts) - does anyone have any recommendations for keeping them healthy without the bio-load of fish? Should I start target feeding them?

They should be fine, I wouldn't worry much. Zoas and Xenia are quite hardy under most conditions... You can also dose nitrate if it bottoms out and they seem unhappy.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
