3 times every 24 hours, a fish's stomach is about the size of it's eye, you can use that to determine the correct quantity.
For best growth you need a food with a higher fat content. Freshly hatched baby brine shrimp are ideal. If you don't feel like setting up a bbs hatchery, Omega One First Flake is your best alternative. Crush it up into a fine powder.

Brine shrimp. It is a very fine powder. I use to feed my fry several times a day. They use to eat frozen boodworms too. As i was feeding my adult fish. The bloodworms would come through the bottom of the breeding box.

a small pinch 2wice a day. Depending on how fast they eat, you may need to give them another few pinches of food. Feed them until they stop eating (they aren't like goldfish and they wont eat til the pop :)

i used to put 2 drops of liquid food a day in my tank.try boiled egg yolk(only a small piece) and add a t-spoon of water to it and give it a good stir.that worked for me but remember to chuck it away after a couple of days and make a new batch up,also keep it in the fridge.
