I have 2 fiji devil damsels and a lawnmower Blenny. I also have a couple snails and hermits. 35g tank

Im currently feeding them 1 pinch of food each day. I alternate between 3 different foods so they get something different each day. Spirulina, Hi Pro, and Omega Marine pellets.

One pinch doesnt seem like much, but id lile a second opinion.

I’ve always fed my clowns two pellets each a day
 
So am i doing too much?

I don’t want to say you’re feeding too much as it’s a preference.. I would just worry about over feeding and left over food falling to sand bed. Try the new method and just make sure they all get the same amount of food.
 
Most fish's stomach is approximately the same size as their eye, so they don't need much per feeding. However, small reef fishes are built to have a few small feedings a day. So maybe feed a little less food per feeding, but add more feedings.
