so i recently got a clown just an occellaris the false percula or whatever...anyways

it is pretty small right now but very active. im not sure how much food he SHOULD be eating because of how small he is...hes been in the tank about...6 days and ive tried dried blood worms, slow sinking pellets, flakes and frozen brine shrimp cubes.

he will roam around and pick LITTLE tiny flakes of...flakes and when the frozen starts to dissolve he will pick little flakes of that. but i mean he is only eating like 5 or 6 TINY TINY pieces the size of a flea. so i try to feed him twice a day a few little flakes and a cut off chunk of brine-cube.

is this normal feeding for such a tiny little fish he must be around .8 - 1 " big. we picked out the littlest guy in there.
 
He's eating, that's good. I would feed him 3 or 4 times a day at that size, you can decrease as it grows larger. Feed it what it will eat, when it's full it will stop eating a spit the pieces back out if it grabs one. Be sure to consistently make 10-15% water changes--weekly.
