i have a school of around 30 of them, thank god they are all healthy.

n.e way that is alot of mouths to feed, but how to i make sure that they all get something to eat without adding too much food to avoid overfeeding.

the food is frozen blood worms.

30 of them... but what are they?

This looks like a continuation of a thread not a new one... name that mystery fish... I won't be able to sleep otherwise.

If you sprinkle it throughout the tank then I imagine even if they don't all get a mouth full at every meal time they will get something most of the time. I have a similar issue with my faster/bigger fish getting to the food before anyone else, so I stagger dropping in the food...when the big ones go for the first pinch I drop another pinch behind them that the rest can get to!

You can feed them in 3 different places & the fish will easily get some of the Bloodworms.
