how often to feed copperband butterfly

[jmccown]

Bought a very nice CBB specimen the other day and he is eating like a pig believe it or not. I've been feeding him 2x daily (morning and night) one cube of frozen brine shrimp each time. Just wondering if this is often enough. I've read that these fish have to be fed often. He really gets his belly full when it is feeding time, chases every piece of the brine. What is everyone elses' routines?

That is how often i feed mine, had him for over a year. I feed him brine in the mourning and mysis in the evening. if you can get mysis, the protein in that is like 3x brine. good luck and great fish!

Thanks. Things still going great with him. Seems perfectly healthy (knock on wood,lol). Still eating like a pig.
