Hello all,
I have kept larger Ryukins for about 3 years now so I know how to feed adults properly without overfeeding, however, I recently aquired a few small (1-inch or slightly less) Ryukins. I am not sure how often these young fish need to eat given that they are growing fast and much more active than my adults (they little one are quarantined away from the adults). So far I have been feeding them small amounts twice a day similar to the schedule for my adults. But I feel like this is not enough given how frantic they seem to eat. I am also concerned because I will be going on vacation in a few weeks and I want to make sure they are properly taken care while I am gone. Any good advice would be welcomed. Thank you.
