Anyone not feed often also?

1-2 times a day cuz I like watching them eat and I don't feed much at a time. Like Freezekougra says-about what they'll eat in 30 seconds. I change a ton of water every week on the tanks in order to "get" to feed once or twice a day. Every few days is perfectly acceptable if it ever comes down to that, at least I wouldn't have to change so much water then.
 
well, typically I feed once a day but for feeders I feed them like 3 times a day, mkae grow fast
 
I'd rather spread out what I'd feed on that third day across the days between. I just enjoy feeding, especially my Oscar, and even if it's just a few pellets at a time, I'd rather take a minute every day to do it. I'm sure I could probably feed him every other day now that he's about nine inches. But it's hard to say no to that wagging tail, and if the total weekly consumption remains the same, no harm done, right? I only fast one day per week.
 
my 1100g i only feed 2x a week. they generally get 1/4lb-1/2lb of pellets at once however (and make short work of it none the less) however the pacus, oscar and CK are all 12" or over and have good size to them, and the 2 catfish both have nice round bellies. so the fish are far from starving

my betta's and 75g get fed on no set schedule. sometimes every 2-3 days, every other day, sometimes ill feed them 2-3 small meals a day.
