How much to feed my guppies?

[kitty falol]

At the moment I've got a well planted tank with 5 guppy adults and about 20+ fry. Unfortunately I haven't got room for another tank, so I've stopped rescuing fry and now I'm just letting the quickest and feistiest guppies survive.

Before the babies came along, I would feed them a little bit once a day, but since I've had fry I've been feeding them a little bit, 3 times a day. Some liquifry in the morning, a pinch of crushed up fish flakes in the afternoon and a few cooked peas in the evening.

Everything seems to be going OK and my water parameters are doing fine, I'm just a little bit concerned that my adult fish are getting a little bit too much to eat and it might not be so good for them.

What do you think? Is there a better way of ensuring that my fry get plenty to eat to help them develop, but my adult guppies don't come to any harm?

Thanks

Hi GuppyDude!

Thanks for that. I'm probably feeding about twice what I was, just spread out over the day.

Thanks for confirming that.
