....best to feed sparingly for a given amaount of time
and then stop. Say feed what they consume in 5 minutes etc, and let it

===============================================
This is about the amount of time mine have to suck up their pellets. The
young fish get fed twice a day plus some extras such as orange slices, whole
grain bread, canned Mackerel and duck weed. But these are only treats given
a few times a week.
