so im still new in the fh world, i was wondering how much should i feed my lil bonzai fh, he is only 2'', i was feeding him about 3 grand sumo pellets in the morning, and evening, but he would always turn dark whenever i approached him or he saw me looking at him, so i decided to feed him another 5 pellets and after that he seem to not be so stressed about me around him! can someone tell me whats the usual amount to feed fh?
 
like b4 he would be freaked out with any movement, but now i fed him alot, he doesnt care about anything arund him.. lol wtf?
 
imo i dont think fh will stop eating, i feed mine alot but not too much at one time
if you kept sa/ca cichlids u should feed them the same amount as that
 
Remember the more you feed it the more fat it grows and most of the times when you do this you end up with a FH that has a huge body and a tiny or no hump at all.

The less you feed it the better. It makes the FH head stand out in proportion to the body.

Unless you are breeding them feel free to feed them just little or less.
