Dwarf Fuzzy Feeding

[bigpapa]

Questions...
A) How often do you feed your piglet of a fish?
and
B) When you do feed him/her, what and how much?
Mine would eat every day and alot if I let him and I am just curious to see what others on here do. I have heard that they could eat themselves to death and I dont want to take the chance. Thanks!!!

i try to feed mine something meaty with a feeder stick about twice a week. i does this until her stomach bulges out a little. she does inevitably eat every day when i feed my other fish though.

Mine really wont touch the other food- I have a clown, blue damsel, and a striped damsel. Oh, and no the fish dont bother him at all and he has shown no inclination to eating them. As far as the stomach bulge-he seems to break that down in less than 24 hrs and is ready to go.. omg I think I got a fish processer with wings..

so the fish is eating prepared foods now? if so, you are good to go. they are very smart and will learn to eat the rest of the food in the aquarium soon.

My lion will eat every day, or skip a day then eat more the next day. He has just started liking to skip a day and then want more the next day. What does he eat?

I still have a few minnows/small GF from the lfs left that I have been feeding marine food and have a garlic additive(I heard somewhere that using the garlic then using it on my thawed silversides would help with the transition). I also feeding stick the silversides now too. I have access to others like frozen mysid and krill but he has not shown any interest in them.

I feed mine every other day. I usually go with a mix of silversides, krill, and brine shrimp. He only really seems to want food every other day. He is always begging but is really picky if its an off day for feeding. Ususally he swims away when he's done and I notice a slight bulge in his stomach.

Every time I walk by my tank my fuzzy gets all excited and seems to be begging for food. I feed every day but I am careful not to over feed the tank. It just doesn't seem like he can get enough!
