CT_ Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Can you overfeed BBS? I mean in terms of harming the fish directly not by spiking ammonia/nitrate. I'd think so but I heard an offhand remark on an ACO YT video that you can't and I'm not sure how serious that remark was. I'm trying to grow up some whitecloud's to mosquito eating size as fast as possible so they've been getting BBS 2-3x/day. There's only 6 of them and they're smaller than my neo-shrimp right now so I'm feeding what I think is a half day's worth of food at a time but i could be way off because I don't really know. They're getting pretty fat bellies now, almost like they have a little yolk sack, so now I'm starting to worry I'm over feeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy's Fish Den Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I would say, it would depend on several factors, including, tank size and what your filtration is. If you hatch out a teaspoon of eggs, and put it all in a 2.5 or 5 gallon tank to feed like 10 guppy fry, yes you can overfeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDukeAnumber1 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) I don't believe there will be an issue. I've feed BBS exclusively for months and saw no problems and haven't heard of others having issues doing this either.
