    It really depends on your schedule and what you want to do. You can feed two very small meals twice a day, or feed once a day. I feed once every other day.

    ok I would get away from the brine as it really doesn't offer much in the nutrition department for the fish. Try some frozen mysis, marine cuisine, or rods food. As far as feeding goes, this is how I do it. When I add a new fish I will feed daily for about three or 4 days just to get him going good and then I cut back to every other day. My corals get fed once per week when I feed my tank a heaping portion of rods food.
