    I'd cut one cube in thirds and feed in three different places. Watch to see how quickly it is eaten and if all the discus get a chance to eat. then decide if you need to feed more

    Good advice. I generally feed small amounts at one time. If it consumed , I will feed some more.
    With one mature and two yougins ...watch for compition.
    Don't want the juvies to go hungry!

    Sometimes I let the biggest feed and meanwhile i will drop in some worms just for the others, in another part of the tank.
    They do come a running.
