my red devil has grown from 2.5" to 5" in about 2 months ,he's been fed on NLS, earthworms and meal worms twice a day.
i was wondering if i should reduce this down to once a day or just continue feeding him twice a day, he eats like a pig :D
 
I would keep feeding him twice a day until he reaches around 7-8". Then slow it down some.

If your nitrates are high, i would recommend feeding once a day
 
any pics?? I would do twice a day but give him a day off once a week or so!
 
Have been playing with mine putting my hands under his sand and creeping towards him (like you would with a cat with hand under rug, and he bites at the sand. Today while playing with him like this he bit me really hard it hurt for a few minutes and felt like any harder i would have bled. I think ill leave him alone now. Its getting dangerous.
 
Nice Devil and I would keep feeding him twice a day... When I a my devil sometimes I would feed her 3 times a day just because I liked to her eat and interact with me. I did this until I sold her back to the store. She reached about 8 inches!
