My other 2 fish,crapet eel blenny and a snowflake feed once every 3 days, (one whole silverside) less for the snowflake. but my question is, can I put my scorpion leaf fish(2-2.5inch) on the same schedule, or should I feed him every other day?
also he is small, i got him 3 days ago and he fed yesterday and ate 3 ghostshrimp by putting a net with them in front of his face. should i feed him more then that in one sitting, i know the fishs body is thin to mimic a leaf.

I think once every 3 days should be okay. Predator fish like this go a long time between meals in the wild.

And they don’t do much swimming which helps.

Seldom big meals > frequent small meals
