I often feel like I may be feeding way too much. Just curious how much other people are feeding. Please list the size of your tank, fish list, and how much you feed per day. Thanks in advance for your input, I will start it off
Tank is 100 gallon
1 yellow tang
1 magnificent foxface
1 coral beauty dwarf angel
1 blue sapphire damsel
1 magenta dottyback
2 clowns
3 lyretail anthias
I feed approximately 3 cubes of frozen ( various mysis, mega marine, krill, baby brine, cyclopods)
2 sheets of nori
1/2 tsp of dried phyto, zoo, copepod mix
 
65 Gallon
1 Kole Tang
3 Tri Color Anthias
2 Clowns
1 Flame Hawk
1 Six Lined Wrasse
1 Yellow Tail Damsel

I feed a 1 x 1 chunk of LRS Reef Frenzy twice a day and NLS Algae Max pellets 3-4 times a day.
 
75 Gallon
1 Coral Beauty
2 Leopard Wrasse
2 Clowns
1 Six Line Wrasse
1 Banggai Cardinal
1/2 cube mysis, emerald entree, or spirulina brine
Spectrum flakes in the morning, pellets at night
Reef Chili a few times a week
 
For the most part yes. I feed twice a day, its pretty much gone in 5 minutes, some of the dried particulant food goes in the overflow, it has a tendency to float.

As long as they are eating it all, and you don't have issues with high nutrients or algae I think you're fine.

I have (in QT at the moment)
Regal angel
4 wrasses
2 clowns
Kole tang

They eat flakes and live black worms in the am, flakes/pellets midday, a fresh littleneck clam or two (for the regal) and one cube of frozen (alternated kinds) at night. And one clip full of algae daily, alternating red, green, and purple.
 
Yea im pretty sure I over feed like a mad man!! I refuse to starve my fish for the sake of the corals though.
