Hello all,
This is my first post to this site and I came here looking for information, I was looking for some advice on a good feeding schedule for growing out juvenile angelfish in my 75 gallon. They are approximately quarter size, maybe a little larger. Will this feeding schedule be appropriate:

Monday
Flakes 3 PM, 5 PM, 8 PM
Tuesday
Flakes 3 PM, 5PM, Brine Shrimp 8 PM
Wednesday
Flakes 4 PM, Peas 8 PM
Thursday
Flakes 3 PM, 5 PM, Blood Worms 8 PM
Friday
Flakes 3 PM, 5 PM, 8 PM
Saturday
Flakes 9 AM, 1 PM, 4 PM, Brine Shrimp 8 PM
Sunday
Flakes 9 AM, 1 PM, 4 PM, Blood Worms 8 PM

I follow the general rules of small amounts of food at each feeding, no food hits the bottom, and 50% water changes bi-weekly (though i'm contemplating more). Any advice you can give me in this regard would be appreciated, Thanks in advance.

Weekdays sounds like a lot of feedings in a small window of time. Would be better for 1 in the morning instead of the 5 pm feeding the continue with 3pm and 8 pm.

The only time i could feed my tank in the morning would be around 7, and I have been playing with the idea of splitting my photoperiod to allow for this, do the lights have to be on for the feedings? and I have hikari cichlid pellets but I think they are too large I will experiment with maybe crumbling them to smaller sizes. Thank you for the responses keep them coming.

You can turn lights on for 10-15 minutes just to feed. My fish will feed without light but ones without a timer know that its time to chow down when I turn on the light.
