What amount of food do i give them when i feed them?

Question

i'm getting 5 neon fish and i'm going to feed them tropical fish flake food. and twice a day. but when i feed them how much should i give them?

Answer 1

Feed them a very, very tiny amount.  For 5 neons, a pinch is probably too much.  A good rule of thumb is that a fish's stomach is about as big as its eyeball.  So take a look at your fish's eye and figure on feeding it that amount of food.  Not very much, is it?!

Answer 2

I usually do how much they can eat between two and three minutes.  For my its just a pinchful of food!

Answer 3

give them a pinch and if there is any left over get it out with a fish net

Answer 4

A little bit for all they can eat for two minutes.
