I have a full CUC but I don’t know if I am feeding them enough. How much of a frozen cube do you suggest ?

I have 100G tank.
 
How big are they?
When you feed them, if there is food left over in the tank after about 5-10min, you might be feeding too much.
 
If they are small clowns (<1.5" or so), I would think about half a cube per day. If they are larger, then a full cube a day. You could likely fiddle with that up and down based on what you see them eating and how often you feed, but that might be a good place to start from.
 
Yeah Im doing about half, just under. Seems to be working good. I started to use feed mode as well. Works a lot better.
