I'm interested on the recommended feeding. I believe the LFS has overstated how much I should be feeding..

I currently have:

-Foxface Rabbitfish
-Long Nosed Butterfly
-Flame Angel
-Coral Beauty Angel
-Small Clownfish

For cleanup I have:

-3 Emerald Crabs
-2 Fighting Conch
-6 Mexican Turbos
-6 Very Tiny Blue Legged Hermits
-Electric Blue Hermit
-Thin Striped Hermit
-2 Peppermint Shrimp
-Monkey Shrimp
-2 Cleaner Shrimp

Tank is a 70G with a 30G sump. Right now about 100lbs of liverock.

The LFS recommended that I put in a cube of mysis shrimp once a day, and then either 30 or so small pellets or an algae cube at night.

It just seems like a lot of food to be putting into the tank. The foxface has quite an appetite though, I've counted it eating 18 pellets just by itself within the first two minutes.

Thanks for the help!
 
I only feed what my fish will consume in 4-5 minutes and try to never let it hit bottom once a day.
