Do you feed until it won't eat anymore, or do you stop feeding it first, leaving it a bit hungry still..

i feed about 75% for my red aro. i leave him a bit hungry. rtg i dont really care lol. i think if i feed the red too much, the colour wont catch up to size. i see a lot of red aros out there that is very bulky but lack the colour. so far so good with my chilli.

i also dont feed any of my fish 1 day of the week. just so there is a small rest period.

aros seam to feed more when they are in a Com/groups

also reds seam to feed a lot better than gold aros

i throw in about 100 x super worms per feed daily for 5 x 18inch aros they would eat more

any worms that are missed get eatern by my rays and tigrinus cat fast so there are never any food left over

I never feed him to the point of stopping eating, but I only feed 4 times a week so I feed pretty well. I have to get food down to the bichirs. The NTT and the aro are at the top so they get first pick all the time.
