hey all,
Was wondering what an ideal feeding schedule would be for my 150G FOWLR tank.
Current stocking list (all very small juveniles currently)
-porcupine puffer
-Picasso trigger
-black Volitans Lionfish
-harlequin tusk
-mappa puffer
-snowflake eel

I’m use chunky mix, fresh shell on shrimp, and clams on the Half shell. I also throw in like 3-4 ghost shrimp about every other day
Sunday: chunky mix,
Monday: shrimp and 1-2 clams,
Tuesday :chunky,
Wednesday: 2 clams,
Thursday: chunky
Friday: thawed shell on shrimp
Saturday: chunky and 1 clam

Any suggestions on where to improve?
Should I add at least one fast day to my schedule?
Am I way over Feeding? They eat the vast majority of the food I put in there, and the hermits take care of the rest.

I have a bubble magus curve 7 and an eschopps 150 wet dry as mechanical filtration, and a, looking to add a biopellet reactor to my current setup to try to offset the large nitrates I assume I will always be battling with the bioload I have.

Hope you had a good 4th of July!

Thanks in advance for your advice!
