the 2 minute recommendation is fine for single tailed fish, altho the food goes in
and comes out pretty fast without all getting digested and then it just fouls the
water. but for fancies overfeeding is deadly.
correct, biowheels are good for trops, but GF are soooo dirty. Ingrid

I must have been overfeeding by your definition, I can see waste at times in
there. I had a hard time deciding how much to feed them, as a lot of places
say "as much as they will eat in 2 minutes". Well, my fish are swimming
piggies and would eat a 5 pound roast in 2 minutes! I'm cutting them back.
I'll also cut down the frozen food and try zapping it as well. They won't
be happy with that, though, they love that stuff.
I guess the bio-wheel in the Emperor's doesn't keep enough bio-bugs in it?
