Whats a good amount to feed him at this size ? I want too feed him enough so he can grow at a fast rate but not soo much that he grows excess fatty tissue

Just increase proportion slightly as he gets larger. A small bulge in the belly is all that's needed to be fed every other day.

That's fine too, I just prefer every other day. To keep it a little more natural, give them more time to digest, and makes them hungrier so they feed better. Just my experience.

OH...IO
Being so young Id feed daily maybe even twice a day. If you want to cut back as he matures you can. I just picked up a 5" vatf myself
