Hi,
I have a 45 gal bow front tank with 2 small clownfish, 5 hermit crabs and 3 snails. I have been feeding my clownfish 3 PE pellets 3 times a day each. For a total of 9 pellets per fish per day. That’s it for the tank. Last night my ) year old asked to help and we had some extra pellets reach the sand. My crabs went crazy and were fighting over the pellets. And the fish went after them too. It made me think that I’m not feeding enough..... any advice???
thank you!!
 
I'm sure you're feeding them enough. Some feed far less than that. Or feed all of that at one time, or feed that every other day (not a big fan of every other day feeding though). Much prefer how you're doing it, small meals a few times a day.

Best way to tell is how do they look? If fish look healthy and act healthy...then they're probably healthy. :)
