how often to feed?

theres probly 5+ auto feeders models on drsfostersmith, some have more/better features than other all around $30 bucks.. fyi

 

ive got an autofeeder. i like but it but uive found 2 drawbacks with it. ive found too many pellets come out because of their relative size. and also found that the flake can sometimes get "sticky". where you dont always get the proper portion that i want fed if im using it. but overall ive found them good in a pinch if needed.

 

2 clowns, 1 blenny, 1 coral beauty

I feed 2x a week if I think about it. Often just 1x a week. They have frequently gone 2 weeks without being fed by me. I also broadcast feed the coral about 1x a week and the fish get some then too. A lot of fish can find their own food growing naturally, pods, etc.

I've had the clowns almost 2 years like that now and they're not skinny or anything.

 

Used to feed every other day but on current tank I feed twice daily.

 

I feed a large meal twice a day for about 12 fish (Tangs,Angels,puffers, trigger, clowns, goby, etc.).

 

Feeding really is a personal thing, and dependant on the appetite of the fish you own. That being said, I feed 5 times a week and usually more times rather than less. The way they go bananas for the Mysis when I do tells me it would probably bum them out if I tried to stretch it. With a good cleanup crew and Skimmer, you should be able to feed your tanks every day.
