Since overfeeding seems to be a common source of problems (and underfeeding must be worst) I am wondering if there is a way to judge whether I am feeding my fish too much or too little. I am especially concerned with underfeeding - I do test my water regularly for Nitrates and Phosphates for indications of possible overfeeding. My little fish seem to be the worst indicator for overfeeding (they're always hungry). I do look at them to see how healthy they look but being new to this I'm not sure I'd recognize an underfed clownfish or Royal Gramma.
I am currently feeding them twice a day and slowly put in food trying to limit the amount that gets wasted. The amount is about what they can eat in a 2 minute period.
Any insights are welcome.
