Aggression made worse by over feeding?

[Trever]

I've probably been overfeeding, though getting better.

I'd swear I've seen my fish get hyper from food- like little kids. Heck, like me too!

I've always heard plenty of feeding keeps aggression down but I'm not so sure about that...

Anyone else?

Mine normally slow down, like after thanksgiving. What are you feeding them?

TDO Chroma Boost pellets. Also mysis. Probably worse after the pellets...

I think it depends on what kind of aggression. In my system, well fed fish means less overall aggression throughout the day, but actual feeding time is a wild free-for-all.

free-for-all.

Apparently I'm in sound track mode.... everything is making me think of songs today...

Throughout the day all 14 of my fish in my reef tank get along and that includes 5 triggers. I feed them in the evening and that is a sight to see. One thing I did notice is on occasion the triggers (not all of them) after eating will get into minor tussles compared to throughout the day when not fed they get along fine.

Hmmn, never heard of her ..... (though I haven't added a new musician/band to my inventory of music in ..... well, since about 1995 LOL). I'll have to ask my kids.
