Question Under and Over feeding

I've been looking around and haven't found a clear cut answer. I was wondering exactly how much to feed my 4 inch axolotls? I have some frozen blood worms and when i feed them, they will never stop eating but i also don't want to not feed them enough. Any suggestions?

Default Re: Under and Over feeding

I'd feed them enough until they have nice round bellies and then stop. At 4 inches they are still growing rapidly and need what seems like a large amount of food. Try giving them some chopped earthworms, this will fill them up quicker.
