I have a 35 gal with clowns, gobies, coral, live rock,some crabs. How often should you feed the fish some one told me you should skip days so they will eat whats in the tank, is this true?

True, let them graze naturally, also this will prevent over feeding and cut down on the phosphates and nitrates.

i feed mine a little every other day, they seem to do fine... make sure to have a diverse diet so they will get proper nutrients

TOO MUCH, alternate every other day.

And invest in other foods. Flake is junk imo.

pellets, seaweed(algae), any raw seafood ground up, and also put some FRESH garlic juice with your food, it will help out your fish's immune system. only use fresh garlic, none of the bottled stuff

Flakes are the most part not good, but if you must fees fry food, get the SPECTRUM THERA A+, that should be sufficient enough... I like the prime reef and I also like the MYSIS SHRIMP soaked on different days,, of VITA CHEM and GARLIC EXTREEME..
