How often do you feed your fish?

i feed mine when i rember to.i try to feed them once a day

I try to feed my tank every other day, but I forget sometimes, and they end up going two days with no food. They certainly let you know when you skip a day though.

I do feed daily, however I wonder if that doesn't contribute to rises in negative water conditions. I have heard to only give them a few flakes each or feed four times a week...do you think they will starve like that?

 

[Twisted]

I was told the general rule is that you only feed what they will eat with in a few minutes span. Not sure of the exact rule, or who the general who made it is...

Feeding four days a week they will not starve...BUT!

Anything you have that has a reputation for eating corals such as coral beautys, flame angles, etc... just might start eating polyps if they "think they are starving"

Gak! No! Okay, that does away with that thought.

i feed once a day. i know i over feed but its a pain to cut frozen cubes in haif. none of the fish in my tank are grazers so they dont like going a day without food. when i had my 125 i had a flame angel, 2 tangs and a tomato clown. all of them grazed so it was fine for them to go a day without food so i only fed every other day.
