Allright, well, I bought Hikari Oranda Gold yesterday! Woo hoo... Pet's smart
specially ordered it for me because it ran out, but anyway!

I have a Redcap Oranda. It's about 2 inch and a half, so I guess it's fairly small,
but the thing is... I don't know how many pellets I'm supposed to give it to feed on.
What do you guys think? and how many times per day?

I would start of small when you are around to watch. Maybe 10-15 pellets epending on the size or so and see how fast she gobbles. Twice a day should be plenty and even if you are not around to do the second feeding, she will be fine. There are a lot of good threads in here about food choices *I know, reading toay myself*

You might want to take some time and read about other foods your new love might enjoy...have fun biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

You'll want to soak them and make sure they sink. When I fed that I would put enough in there to feed him for about 2 mins. I did this twice a day.

I feed this food - and I hope I am feeding them enough! I feed about 20-25 pellets for 6 fish, once a day. Presoaked of course. I also give them lettus in the veggie clip.
