Question
hi iam not sure how much to feed my fish, i have two zebra danios and one minio and i would like to know how much  to feed them i buy flake food
thanks

Answer
Molly,

 Feed them a small pinch in the morning and a small pinch in the evening. It is very easy to over feed fish and they will eat every time they are fed, even if they are not hungry. Some people say to feed them enough that it is gone in 2 mins. That is on ok thing, but remember fish can eat fast and you might end up over feeding. Just watch your when you feed and you will soon figure out how much they can eat without getting too much. Its kind of a give and take issue.
