    its probably fine for your types of fish... as long as they each get a few bites at least every couple of days they will be fine.

    I also wonder how much I should feed. I have a fresh water parrot, 3 zebras & 3 cats in one tank.

    In the other I have 3 goldfiish & 5 gourmais.

    When I come to the tank to turn on the light, they all come to the glass. The parrot eats alot I feed both tanks every other day. I also feed my salt water tank every other day. ( 1 clown, a large sea anenome, one shrimp, snails, a conk a crab & 5 corals )

    I hope I am feeding them enough. I know some fish will eat till they burst. What do you think ?

    I was always taught to consider a fishes stomach to be about the size of its eyes and feed accordingly. I feed frozen mysis and flake spirulina algae 3 to 4 times a week and only enough that they can eat it in a few minutes. Most of my fish are over 6 years old now and many have lasted 13 years in previous systems so it seems to be working.
