How often do you feed your tank?

[sharij1]

And, do you have an automatic feeder?

 

[skriz]

5-8 times a day.
Yes, autofeeder feeds 3 times a day. 2-5 times a day I feed frozen.

 

[heathlindner25]

flakes and pellets twice a day, frozen twice a week

 

[porpoiseaquatics]

Autofeeder at work twice a day. It feeds pellets. Then I feed a variety about 3 times a week by hand......flake, frozen foods (blood worms, mysis, brine shrimp, reef blend)

 

[snowmansnow]

fish = 4 times a day..
corals... VERY rarely

 

[thanhreef]

Seaweed: small pieces a day
Flake or pellet: 1 time a day
Rod's food: 1 time (dinner time) a day

 

[supermancrv]

I usually feed my reef 2 times a night mon-sat like 45minutes or so apart and 2-3 times a day on Sunday depending on my schedule. Mostly a mix of rods, reef frenzy, and nls pellets(when i'm lazy). My fowlr is 1 time a night and rods predator blend or shellfish from grocery store.

Thanks

1 time a day maybe twice

Once a week I don't feed at all

 

[rdnelson]

I never feed my tank. I just feed the fish and corals. Never knew the tank needed to be fed.

Yea mine do too! I depends on the fish you have though. If you can give a fish list that would be helpful.

Oh sure; multiple feedings throughout the day is better. Fish are accustomed to eating throughout the day in the wild.

Heck, I generally eat 6 meals a day..I can't deny my fish the same

Why would anybody punish themselves with ice house?
