Hi, how much would I need to feed 1,000 tilapia? Thanks

That would depend on their size! Duck weed grows fast, I can pull about 2 cups every 4 days out of a 30 gallon container growing the stuff! The best solution is to set aside a large body of water to raise duck weed and as soon as you see it building up remove some to feed the fish. Eventually you will know how much they eat and grow the necessary amount. It's all trial and error.

It depends on the owner. Whatever you are more comfortable with. But usually, I give my betta around 3-4 Pellets. 1 set in the morning and at night. Sometimes 1 pellet in the afternoon.

it depends on the load on the filters. i have two large cichlids that are housed in a 125 gal aquarium and mostly feed them live minnows. the pellets seem to be alot of waste because when they eat them about half escapes out their gills and mouth. monitor your aquarium regularly withe a test kit. this will help you get a feel of how often you need to change carbon and zeolite media if that is what your going to use. love the penn-plax filters best bang for your bucks!

The pellets are on the larger size or they would need to be bigger goldfish at least 3". I have mix of Koi and large goldfish and this is what I feed them both.

I would probably say 1 tbsp. That's what I use and that is more than enough.

I assume your question is for oxygenating fish, and not hydroponics, so.....I used 1 of these per 250 gal container with 50-60 adult tilapia in it. Realize that you will push less air the longer the tube feeds are, and 9 40s would have to be 6 ft minimum runs on the perimeter, even if you centrally locate pump, so i would probably use 2, just guessing......They are very noisy, mine lasted just over a year ( warranty time ) but i have since found some info on how to rebuild the diaphragm, so i might raise my 1 star review

Hello, you want about a 1:9 ration so a little less than a 1 tbsp. (There are 1 tbsp in every ounce)

Should be.....I use mine to feed my fish. I have 2 of these and set up 1 for A.M. feeding & other for P.M. feeding when away for several days

I would get flakes or small pellets for little goldfish - my fish are pretty big! 6,7 8 inches long!

If you are feeding a big tank with many fish probably not but a small tank I'm sure would be good. I know I have gone close to 30 if not 30 days feeding twice a day.

Depends what you are keeping. For a coral tank with few to none sps, 1 650 should be just fine, I'd start there. If you decide you need more, just add another later on.

I have a betta sorority of five and each fish is about 3 months old. I feed about 1-3 pellets to each fish about 4-5 times a week (usually their stomachs are bulging with this amount). Once a week, I might give a little more and once a week they fast.

So far Im only feeding a 200 gallon pond....But it seems to be driving 2 - 4" stones and 3 regular little ones ,pretty well. So I would guess 2 this size or maybe one the next size up

I agree with Philip - way too small of a tank! Those Angel Fish and that pleco are going to get REALLY big. Move them up to a big tank and enjoy the shrimp in the 10 gallon alone or with a few small, peaceful fish.

Clearly not enough. No room for plants or any way to get oxygen in. Basically torture for fish -- like not enough air or space. Why bother to waste money- soon you will have dead fish.

I would cut off 1" and feed her. Of course, it also depends on activity level. If she is very active, you may want to feed her 1 1/2".

Absolutely overkill for a 5 gallon tank. You need a 50watt at most. A 150watt would likely cook the little guppies.
