Feeding - how often?

[jimstreet]

How often do people feed their discus? I'm feeding mine 4 times a day with the auto feeder, it is all gone in a couple of minutes. Every other night I throw in 2 frozen bloodworm or discus blocks. Is this too much?

[Mavzta]

Twice a day when I get home from work.

[mattgoanna]

I feed once in the morning and about 4-8 times in small amounts at night

[jimstreet]

Reducing to 2 feeds a day seems to be clearing the water up.

[Nathan]

twice a day max

[Monarodan]

twice a day max

I feed my little one 4-6 times daily and breeders 2 daily

[Nathan]

oh yes if youve got small juvies or fry that have grown big enough to move off of the parents slime coat then feeding heaps more regularly is needed. But for adult discus specially in a display tank i wouldnt go more then 2 times a day
