How much food do 5 danios need

Question

i have

flake

freeze dried blood worms

and i am getting some frozen food (if you can recommend a good one)

whats a good amount to feed and how often

Answer 1

Once a day for 2-3 minutes will be sufficient remove all uneaten food as it will foul the water. Frozen bloodworns and brine shrimp are popular treats.

Answer 2

They don't need much. Remember that their stomachs are only about the size of their eyes, so they can't hold too much food.

For flakes, just give them a very small pinch twice a day.

Freeze dried BW.... honestly I'm not a fan of. Give this only about once a week as a treat. So 1 or 2 each. Make sure to soak them first before feeding.

Frozen foods, there are frozen bloodworm, and frozen brineshrimp you could feed them. For only 5 danios though, they're not going to need alot, so if you get the frozen food that comes in a cube.

Break off a small chunk... very small chunk and put the remainder of the cube in to a ziplock bag and pop it back in to the freezer.

Defrost the small chunks in a cup w/ some tank water in it. Should only take a min or so, then pour back in to the tank.

Vary it up a bit. Just remember that w/ bloodworms, it has a tendency to constipate fish b/c of the high protein. So don't feed that too often.
