How often should I feed my clown?

[Salt in Texas]

I only have the one Solaris clown and several blue and red crabs and some snails. It's a 20 gallon tank. I also have 16 mushrooms. My question is how often should I feed my clown? I am feeding him frozen brine shrimp. Thanks for the input!

Once daily is fine. Is he a baby? Maybe a bit more often with less if under 1.5". Then daily is fine. I have an adult Onyx that gets fed daily if I remember. Finds other things to eat in the tank.

Yeah he is an inch long if that.

I would do two small feedings daily, don't over feed.

Once a day is fine. IMO twice a day is better - I have found that more frequent, smaller portions are preferable if you have time. However, in contrast I have heard others recommend feeding less often. You may want to mix it up so that you feed a rotation of foods including different types of frozen, dry, and live foods. If you stay current on your regular water changes, pay attention to your water testing, and observe your tank then that should provide feedback on if you are overfeeding. Good luck!
