food?
 
what do you feed your fish? im currently feeding them a mixed frozen every two days but they seem hungry all the time, if i was to keep feeding them everyday they would eat it all..

I feed homemade fish food once a day with fish flakes sprinkled in every other day and pellets every other day and some nori ever other day.

Fish will eat no matter what, hungry or not. I used to overfeed just because they would eat it all within 30 seconds, so i figured it was fine. The big thing is that the more fish eat, the more they poop, making more nitrates in your tank.

I have a auto fish feeder that i feed a small amount of pellets twice a day. Super cheap feeder off EBay($3), so i'm sure it's not consistent. Once every 2-3 days i'll put in a piece of nori, or some mysis.

I am lazy but i have auto feeder that feed pellets 4 time a day on weekdays. They only get frozen food on Saturday. Then no food for them on Sunday.

But really, my trigger belly is like a balloon that seems like gonna be explode in no time but she will eat if i throw food in.

We feed daily NLS pellets and freeze dried mysis.

My fish get a brunch of New Life Spectrum pellets from my autofeeder. Supper is a mix of different brands/types frozen food.

1+ lee9. Early afternoon is new life spectrum and dinner is either frozen brine or mysis.

I feed once a day both a small amount of pellets and flakes. Every few days I will do frozen mysis or my homemade food. Nori every 2 days.

From the sounds of all these people I need a auto feeder to fit in :lol:
