If your fish had veggies today i.e. There is IMO no reason to feed them again. You don't to over feed them. They are opportunist they eat and eat. You don't want that. If they had a helping of veggies then feed them there regularly food tomorrow. Don't worry they won't starve.

Fred them a balanced diet!! I feed mine cucumber, zucchini, broccoli and then NLS Thera A pellets. They love it all!

Also don't let the food decay on the tank. If you see them stop nipping at it pull it out after a little while.

Ok! Yea, they dig the cucumber :) they always seem hungry, and maybe its my motherly instinct or what not, but I wanna feed em lol
 
I'm here :)

Your fish will follow you after you feed them! Try it. They will eat no matter what. It not healthy for them. Jess you have Africans so you wanna be careful of Malawi Bloat so please don't over feed them.

My guys will eat and an hour later they follow me all over the place because they think it's feeding time. Once is plenty. I feed mine everyday, IMO it cuts down on aggression. I there hungry they fight.

Think about it. When your hungry your more hostile right? Same thing in the fish world. A full belly is a happy belly. An over stuffed belly is not so good... Once a day feedings IMO.
 
I would feed everyday if I could get them to eat veggies, is there a trick to it like cook it or something? I don't have aggression problems but my tank is a lot bigger.
