It really depends on the fish species and tank size. I’d start with small portions and make sure everything gets a chance to eat without leaving too much uneaten food. Keep an eye on your fish’s body condition and water parameters, then adjust as needed.

Protein skimmers are especially useful in saltwater tanks because they remove organic waste before it breaks down and affects water quality. Just make sure the skimmer is properly sized for your tank’s bioload.

So true! It’s all about creativity and making the most of what you have
