How often should I feed my fish?
I have 50gl tank inside is
1x Tomini tang
2x percula clownfish
1x Canary Blenny
Right now I'm feeding every day sometimes frozen food and dry.
My question is can I feed only ever other day and still be OK?

Most reef fish have short digestive tracts. This means they do much better with small, frequent meals. Think about how humans eat, a few bigger meals and ideally some snack sized meals as well. When you're hungry, they are too. Could you survive eating every other day? Probably. Would it be optimal for your long-term well-being? Definitely not. It parallels how reef fish eat.
