I have a 55 gallon tank with the following fish in it...

Red Firefish
Purple Firefish
2 False Per Clowns
Diamond Watchman Goby
Flame Angle (coming next week)

I feed once a day (usually when I get home from work in the evening maybe earlier on weekends).
Change it up between 1/2 a cube of PrimeReef, a full cube of mysis shrimp, or flakes (mainly if I don't have the time that night)

Not to worried about leftover food, my
Diamond Watchman Goby will get it or my clean up crew.
 
Ok, so if I want to feed daily....as my children like to do when we eat dinner......what 'measurements' work well for the 9 fish?

When I first started in fish a guy who had been keeping them for years told me a simple rule that had always worked for met. Their stomach is the size of one of their eyes. Feed enough to fill their stomach only. You can do this once a day, once a week but feed less if you feed multiple times.
 
My experience is that fear of feeding two times a day, about 10 hours, every time you have a small amount, and I love more than cut into pieces of seaweed to fish, very nutritious
