How many feedings would you fit for 6 week old fry & juvies between 6pm and 11:30pm which is when lights are out

Opinions vary, some feed only twice to 3 times and others 6+. Its entirely up to what works for you.

Would you want to feed after lights are out? Typically I do a large water change just before lights out and bed them down for the night in clean water, no more food until lights on. But then again I don't turn the lights out until 9-10 pm.

Some people have lights on in the fish room 24/7. If there is no light, do not feed.

3-4 feedings is adequate in my opinion,,feed only quality foods..My biggest and most nutritional meal is the last one of the day..I feed them heavy and make sure they clean everything up and lights out..Unless a tank has fry, then that is the only isolated light that stays on..I feel if they have full stomaches and no lights on to be active then they get the most nutrition out of that meal..No lights on,,no activity to burn off the meal's nutritional value fast....Just my opinion..
