How Much I Feed My Flowerhorn in One Day

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

This is the usual amount of food I feed Pollock each day. The main part is looking at his stomach bulge to determine how much to feed each day. I look for a small bulge after the last meal of the day. I feed once in the morning, and the last meal of the day is before the light goes out. Second meal is whenever I have time, but sometimes it is skipped. If skipped, I feed him more during the last meal so that he would have a little bulge in his stomach.
I do power feed him once a month or so, then starve him for 2 days or so, or until his stomach bulge has subsided.

    This is sooo cute, I felt so much love from this! My flowerhorn gets fed twice a day by meal worms and he is a big fella... I feed him pellets through out the day because every time I pass by he begs for food... My parents don't feed him until there's a bulge at night, they just feed him what the fish store clerk says and it's so sad.

  • @FootheFlowerhorn

    6 жыл бұрын

    pretty much the same rule applies, imo. but for an adult fh, I wouldn't feed 3 times a day. more like once or twice a day until there's a little or hardly any bulge. if fed twice, a little bulge after the second meal. This is not set in stone or anything, but it's what works for me. If there's a big bulge all the time, I think it's too hard on the fish's digestive system. and that could lead to bloat or other health problems down the line, imo.

As soon as I got him I made sure to acclimate him and I also added some of my tank water every 10 mins for an hour. My water parameters are good. Temperature is good but when I put him in after an hour he just sunk to the bottom. He hasn’t thrashed around or anything like that. What do you think it is?

    it really depends on how big your flowerhorn gets. I think it's possible if you have enough filtration for a full grown flowerhorn and do big water changes each week. for a 12 inch flowerhorn, I think it'll be fine. but if yours turn out to be a monster sized, you might have to get a bigger one. but you don't have to worry for 2 years or so.

    for a baby flowerhorn 20~30 gallons with a filter rated for 2 times that would be fine. yea, you must have a lid. they can jump out. you could probably keep it for up to a year depending on how fast he gets big. but full size fh can get 12 inches or more. for your final tank, 55g should be minimum, IMO. bigger is always better for a full size fh. try to get one that doesn't have vertical black stripes or darkened color.

No white poop or anything, hes is super active but his belly still looks a bit bloated Any suggestions still? If i dont give him food he tried to eat his poop and throws it out :p that means he need his food.. im just confused because i dont want him to starve for continuous 2-3 days. xD. Hope u reply!!

    he looks fine. that little bulge is normal. if he's pooping normal, every day, you don't have anything to worry. when he eats his own poop and spits out, that's normal, too. he might do that even if he's full. he wants to eat all the time and he thinks for a second his poop is food. that's a healthy sign. a healthy fh should always want to eat. don't overfeed him, though.
