I feed all my juvies in the 3ft alot of pellets to grow em up quicker, but on my toga tank (180g) i feed the toga once every 2-3 days, he gets some prawns occasionaly crayfish/goldy and also frogmouth pilchard. I feed the bullrouts (x3) 2 times a week, since all they eat is live food and i cant afford to get live food always, but they seem really beefy actually which is amazing, also when i get live food i get probs 100 - 150 gudgeons, and they last all but 2 days if that , since the eel like to come out at night and scoff em all down, but the bullies get alot of fish. Also have 2 filters running in the toga tank, so its all good. All tanks get waterchange 50% every 1 1/2 weeks, i also think i have a healthy balance in my tanks.

So some get alot, and some dont.

you have some great collection of fish and great videos as well.

wow your up to seven tanks already,, thats great,..alot of work but worth it.
 
oh ill admit i probably feed a little heavy. smack me now-i should know better with mbuna's, but i just want to make sure even the little runts get something-i have a female crabro and red empress who pig out on top. i try to feed from 2 separate spots at the same time..
i guess it would help if i could do SOMETHING with my right hand, but im really left hand dominant and the right arm is just there for looks lol. in my next life i wanna be ambidextrious. lol
 
very worth it, love this hobby, if things keep goin at this rate for me, that number will prob double by winter, been looking at this sweet 650 lately
 
Sometimes I feed pretty heavy, and other times I'll feed just a little bit.
