I got three p.endlicheri from Rehoboth Aquatics about three weeks ago. They are doing great... Eating well and active. I started on medium sinking shrimp pelets and now have found that they just love Hikari " sinking carnivore pelets". Today I first saw them going to the top of the tank to pick off the floating dry krill I feed to my arowana. Its great that they are eating a good variety but I wonder If they will eat too much?
When their bellies begin to bulge I stop feeding, but they continiue to look for food. Should I give them food until they stop looking or what is a good indicator that they have had enough?

They are in a 225g tank and get fed 1-2 times daily, skipping a day sometimes.
 
I used to feed enough so that each fish got a decent share, but I also noticed that typically the fish would stop when they were full.

It is a good idea to fast them here and there.
