So I currently have 3 large fish in my tank. About 6" Vlamingi, 6" Pink Tail Trigger and 4" Fiji Foxface.

I want to make sure they are getting enough as I got them pretty fat and would like to keep them this way. Right now in the morning I throw a few small pinches of new era marine pellets (i let them eat the first pinch before doing a second and so on). Then at night around 7pm. I take 1 frozen cube of blood worms and a small chunk (size of a quarter) of rods food and feed it to them.

The small chunks obviously float around and the chromis and clown fish pick up some as well.

Does this sound like too much? I know I need to add some Nori on occasion for them as a substitute, but I am curious if this seems excessive.
