Hi - sorry if this question is old. I tried to search for the answer but I only read x-times a day and that really varies.
I'm a beginner with a FO biube 9 gallon aquarium. The Biorb comes with instructions that says we should feed each fish 4-6 pellets a day of Hikari Marine S. Now these pellets are tiny - bite size. My clownfish is very happy to have them but he always seems to want more and he definetly can have more than 6 pellets a day. I'm currently breaking up his feeding to 2 or 3 times a day giving him 2-3 pellets at each feeding - so he usually gets 6-8 pellets a day. Is that too much? too little? like I said - he always seems to want more..
I also feed him ArciPods - just a drop - every OTHER day in the morning and then give him an addition 3-5 pellets in the afternoon/evening. Again, he really wants more. BTW - I started the ArciPods because my LFS recommended it and both my clownfish and cleaner shrimp love it. I figured a little diversity is also good.
So my question remains - how much is right? am I feeding him too much?
