How quickly do your fish go through their food?

Random question just for fun!

How quickly do you guys go through your food and need to replace? I know it depends on how many fish/tanks you keep. Just want to see other people's routines =)

My juvies are still small so they haven't even made a dent in their food yet (only a 150g container)

Wow, I use to be real stingy with my food, read that the stomach is as big as their eye so I feed sparingly. (Mastiffman knew me that way back then) but now I feed the heck out my fish! I generally use the feed what they can eat within a minute rule. And have been getting more spawns than usual because of it. I think I have to buy 8oz every 6 weeks or so, maybe sooner. (And that's with shrimpmix feedings as well)

Cool, that's pretty fast! How many fish/tanks do you keep? Can't wait for my guys to grow up!

I have 1 x 125 gal tank and go through approx 1lb of food every 6 months or so 👍

I have 24 tanks and feed all of them Dainichi and Omega one. I go through a 5lbs bag of Dainichi pretty quick... SUCKS! lol
