How often should the feeder fish be fed?

As often as possible, the fatter the better; water changes are a must, even more so than on a regular setup, because most people :nilly::popcorn:...just shove 1000 feeders in a 10gal, right?!? The larger the space, the better the food, the maintenance schedule, the healthier, fatter and more nutritious those rosies will be. Someone mentioned above to feed some NLS right before feeding them to the Cichla... I think that's a BEST IDEA EVER :D
 
Haha I have a ten gallon but I dont dump in a thousand of them.I was feeding my feeders twice daily with Omega 1 flakes and the krill dust that settles in the bottom of the container.
 
NOOB question: whats NLS? I do a 50% water change everyday on this setup and its a 20H LOL

New Life Spectrum...brand of pellets

IMO they should be fed very regularly,especially on those days youre going to feed em to the cichla because if you feed them regularly chances are the food you fed them is still in their bellies and is then digested by the cichla instead of the feeders.
