Hello,

I have a 50 gallon AIO tank mixed LPS/softies reef wich currently holds 2 clownfish, a sailfin blenny, a yellow/purple wrasse & a links goby (linki)

Howmuch should i be looking to feed when it comes to frozen food & pellets?
Currently i give 1/4 frozen food daily & the other day i give pellets.

My phosphate is fine but my nitrates seem to rise a little.
 
Personally I would feed 1/4 cube 2-3 times a day, and pellets every few days. Or 1/4 cube once a day and pellets once a day....
I do reverse. Pellets 3 times daily with a feeder and frozen 2-3 times a week. I try to keep my melanrus hungry for meats so she has an appetite for red planaria.

That’s cool. My point is to feed more often per day and that pellets are more nutritional than mysis or brine.
 
I get algae when I feed frozen too often. Delicate balance it seems!
