Feeding

[azeritis]

Should the fish fed at regular hours?
Should they be fed from the same spot?
I read somewhere that if you feed them from they same spot they will tend to gather there if someone stands next to the tank. Is that something to be avoided? I seem to like it.......

I feed my fish whenever i have time, but usually around the same time i eat, to keep it with a breakfast lunch and dinner kind of thing. I think its a good thing for fish to recognize who feeds them and that humans are ok, it makes them more lively and less scared to come out of the rockwork.

I always try to feed at the same time. Because i keep Anthias, i feed several times a day, but in very small doses.

My fish when ever someone walks in the room. He thinks it's feeding time. I don't have a set time, b/c practice lasts anywhere from 3:20 to 5:20.

I would say that maybe two to three feedings a day, small portions, or every other day, big meals. I dont think that it is really necessary to have a scedule to feed your fish.

Watch about overfeeding. Feeding once a day is usually the norm.
