Fish Feeding Blunder: Fish Feed After FIVE Days FASTING

African cichlids feeding after 5days. I went away for the Easter break and set up the automatic feeder on a timer. What I forgot to do was check that the feeder was open. It turns out that the feeder was closed. When I got back I went straight for the fish and thought they looked alright. I decided to give them a feed and when I pressed the button on the feeder to manually feed them I realised that nothing was coming out, only to find out that the feeder was still full and the outlet was closed😲. This is the longest my fish have gone without a feed. I haven’t noticed any apparent concerns with any of the fish but I’ll keep observing them to see if there are any adverse effects due to the lack of food. Jump the video to 2:58 to see the Red Chilli Oscar coming up very close. How much should I feed them after such a long fast? Should they get more or same servings as usual? Please let me know in the comments. #aquarium #fishtank #africancichlids #cichlids #malawicichlids #aquariumfish #fish
