Some successful reef keepers feed every other day, some feed a couple times each day. I personally believe that far more fish die form the effects of overfeeding than from starvation.


I used to feed once a day as well, but i have read that chromis are constantly searching for food as their metabolisms are quite high. Is this incorrect? I have been told by a couple of LFS that chromis are often underfed.

And, as far as all the books and websites that say chromis are "shy and peaceful" HAHA.

These 3 are maniacs. Its fun casue it really added a lot of lilke to the tank, but man are they crazy. Maybe they are still sorting out their place in the world.
