the amount you feed is totally based on alot of different factors so no real one answer ,i would look at your nutrient export and livestock needs.

if i fed what i feed now to say my 33g zoa tank i had 2 yrs ago i would be riddled with algae and high nitrates.

I usually feed mysis and brine once a day but keep feeding the tank till everyone is full, trying to gut load them before I take off on vacation, pellets 4 times a week.

after reading the thread I feel like I under feed, although I dont rinse the food just add it in with all the oils and nutrients and the algae grows in the scrubber like mad, :razz: I purposely do this also so my seahare has food to eat in the DT.
