How Much Should You Feed Your Pet Fish?

If you feed your fish the biggest thing is not too much of them sit on your substrate at the end of a feeding session. If, in your case, you have food floating around and sit on the substrate, and your fish are no longer eat, then you are eating too much. One of the easiest things to change if your pet food aquarium fish, make sure that the food is comparable to the size of your pet fish mouth. For instance, if you have small fish like guppies, platys, mollies, neons of all kinds, fish in these sizes it just does not make sense to feed them a flake size of a quarter now does.

If you do have fish along these sizes then your Flake, the size of a dime or so. Once you past the first hurdle, that's how big your food should be, then comes the next hurdle, how long you should feed them for a feeding session. As I assess this, I will see how much food the fish can eat without it hits the substrate. So, if your diet your fish and the food is easy to reach the substrate immediately eaten, then you get in a good condition. After I wrote this little test, as close to the substrate food can fall before you eaten then I will wait about 30 seconds before more food. This is so that the fish can get things in the mouth so that, if there is more food in the water they can eat them all before they fell in love with the substrate, where, if not eaten pollute the water in the tank.
