First of welcome. Does it eat all the pellets that you give it? Only feed what it can eat. If it is leaving pellets then I would cut back. The more you feed them more nutrients will be in your system and mess up the water quality.

Personally I would say that many 3 times a day is excessive, however, if it’s eating it all then I would only cut back to 5 maybe six pellets. It is also dependent on the size of the pellets. If we are talking tiny pellets then for that size fish maybe not enough. Bottom line watch it’s health and tank parameters and go from there.
