How To Feed Female Taiwan Reef While Carrying Fry?

[critters80]

I wave a female taiwan reef carrying fry and am wondering how I should feed her and how much. I am also wondering if I should actually try because I do not want her to swallow or spit them too early...
thanks

you don't feed them when they have a mouthful. They will simply ignore the food, or worse, swallow the eggs and eat the food. Don't offer her any food until she spits them out.

They generally don't eat while carrying! Occasionally they might try. If it's her first batch, sometimes they eat them anyway and it won't necessarily be from feeding them. She may incubate them for about 20 days -/+ some days, depending on the female!

--edit--
If you have more fish in the tank, I wouldn't starve your other fish, though! Keep feeding your tank as you regularly do and nature kinda takes it's course! Like I said, some have issues with first spawns anyway!
