I purchased 6 Calico gold fish and my 3" goldfields ate them.So i decided to order 6 more and rase them in a fish tank in my house.My question is they always seem to be looking for more food so how much and how often should i feed them? They are only about 1" long.

Every fish i have had from fresh water exotics to salt water and pond fish all give you a guilt trip mouthing for more food even though you just fed them. Most will eat as much as you give them. Don't fall into that trap fish aren't so lucky to get three meals a day they nip along the bottom all day taking in what ever they can find. Usually a whole lot less than our compressed pellets of food.
