I have 10 ocellaris right now and Im wanting to get these guys ready to go into the 650 as soon as possible.

I currently have 9 of them about 3-4 inches and 1 about 5-6 inches. I know waterchanges are crucial!

But as far as feeding, how would you feed for maximum growth. What would you feed for maximum growth? Whats the fastest you have been able to grow these guys out? I had some pbass before and grew them up to about 12 inches and then sold them all to a buddy but I fed them normally and didnt power-feed them..

All advice is appreciated because Im wanting to grow these guys out FAST..

Thanks :)

what is in the 650 now?

they need

1. alot of room
2. alot of live

but powerfeed them might not be good for them in long run...

+ heat and water changes.
 
86* is the best thing you can ever do for growth i thank DMACK For that tip and it works my pbass went from 3" to 7" in 2 months
 
When you say power feeding them might not be best in the long run, why exactly is that?

Is too fast of growth bad for them or is it other reasons?
