3 times for the guppy tanks, twice on the breeding corys and plecos and once on everybody else who is just there to look pretty.

Discus get twice a day as they are juvenile. Everyone else is fed once daily.

FBT are fed once every other day.

Display tank fed daily(once)
breeder tank as much as they will eat up to 3 feedings daily usually 1 or 2.
Fry as often as possible.
Marine tanks 1 or 2 times a week.


IMO if not growing or breeding 1 minimal feeding a day is best and many skip a day a week.
 
I feed most tanks once a day skipping one day a week usually. I feed fry as many times as I can buy usually ends up being once because of my busy schedule. The dwarf puffer tank I add snails once a week. One benefit of having the pond, all the snails I could want.
 
How many snails do you add for the puffer?

Endlers and least killifish tanks: twice a day
16g community: every other day
The smaller nano fish and shrimp tanks: I alternate days between fish food and shrimp food

I add anywhere from 5-20. I try to get a couple larger ones that will have a chance to reproduce in the tank and a bunch of little tiny ones. It's super easy to find them in the pond. Under lily pads, all over the 10ft long anacharis plants, pretty much everywhere I look in the pond.
 
The puffer won't just eat them all at once?

That's why he only puts in so many. I do believe a puffer would be the one to eat itself to death lol. Any snail in there is a dead snail before long.

That's why I have too keep adding them too, the puffers won't let them breed for long and if they find the eggs they eat them too.
