 | angels and feeding |
zerosix Fingerling Posts: 19 Votes: 1 Registered: 27-Jun-2004   | i've got two angels, one is a gold and the other is a blush. anyway, i've read stories about overfeeding your fish but my two angels, everytime i walk in the room to look at them, they swim up to the front to the top of the tank like they're hungry. so i feed them in the morning, afternoon and night. is this too much? they DO eat all the food i give them everytime, is this okay? or am i overfeeding them and not knowing it?  |

The fact that they swim up to the surface is because everytime they see you, they think it is food time. In the wild, they never know when their next meal will be. |
