They deflate and look pretty bad for a couple of hours when they poop. What size tank do you have again?? I see it says 20, is that an L or a 1 or what, cause in your profile it says 20lg so I am confused!! Before anyone can answer your, "Is this enough lighting" question, we need to know the size of the tank...

Depends on how often it eats. Around 1 time every 2-3 days if it eats every other day IME.
