I'd divide a cube into 4ths and press each 3 of the 1/4's on to the glass in different spots. If they finish that up press the last 1/4 on the glass and let them either fight over it or graze on it.
How many cubes of FDBW should I feed per discus per feeding per day?
Another way, how many adult discus get a full meal from 1 cube of FDBW?

If I recall correctly I think Al suggested one cube per two adult fish. I have two 75 filled with mostly wild heckels and they get two cubes twice a day with flake etc throw in at random times and they are fat little buggers.

Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Pat's right. I can't do math in my head. I'd still divide the cube into halves.

I feed my 7 adults 2 cubes 1 time a day as 1 of their 2 daily feedings...it wasn't an intelligent decision, just a wild guess, lol. I do follow Liz's wisdom and divide thecubes so everyone gets some, but they definitely slow down and prob the last 1/2 cube they jostle over for a bout 20 mins as their bellies are bulging...
