What and how much do you feed your fish(per fish) and how big are they?

My little guy seems to want to eat all the time, I feed him a 1" piece of night crawler every few hours, he and his Creek Chub Partner go through at least 3 big fat 6+ inch crawlers(not stretched) every day.

They are smaller fish too :eek:
 
make sure to vary the feed you give them so they don't develop nutritional deficiencies. The creek chubbs are fairly easy to train to pellets so you could use those and i'm sure your other guy will follow suit as well. 3 night crawlers seems a bit excessive. How much you feed them really depends on how big they are. What size are your guys?

Blood worms like the tiny ones you put in a feeder cup on the side of the tank?
 
I have spectrum new life and my chubbs started eating them after about 2-3 days. They also ate algae waffers that I was trying to target to other fish and blood worms
