How Often Should I Feed My

dwarf flame gourami? I've been feeding him once a day or once a night.
He eats like he's never seen food before. Should I feed him more often?
Is he starving?
He gets TetraMin Pro Tropical Crisps.

He is not starving. I usually feed all my fish every other
day.......and sometimes I may feed em twice a day but its usually one
time a day every other day........and I do not think I have ever lost
a fish to starvation. Fish do not eat all day every day in the wild
either. What your feeding is fine, just do not feed it any more than
what it will consume in say 2 or so minutes time, and feeding that
amout every other day will not hurt it either. It can often do a fish
more good to underfeed it than over feed it.
