How often / much should i be feeding oscars?

[Ransom]

I have 2 red oscars they are both abouth 2-3 months old and are about 4" maybe a little bigger,

the last 2 weeks i have been feeding them on lance fish and bloodworm pellets along with flake now and again,

i feed the whole tank 3 bloodworm pellets before work and again at night, with 2 or 3 lwhole lance fish (for the Oscars) who can now each eat 1 whole.

am i feeding them enough or what can i put in the tank that wont make it go cloudy to let them keep eating?

my fish are listed below in my signiture.

Ya I'd feed them a bit more for sure...also watch out, they might eat the corys. I used to think oscars wouldn't eat corys until mine ate one. Of course with the spines he couldn't actually swallow it, but he killed it nonetheless

Flakes and pellets should be the staple of any fish. Sorta.
Feed twice a day sorta heavily. But the average oscar can grow 10" in thier first year of life. So you may not need to feed quite so much. But do feed twice a day.
