All sleeping in Livebearers

Sorry to bother you all in beginners questions but I can't get an answer in livebearers.
Livebearer Question

hungry fish please let us know can we eat tonight

Appreciate your advice

 

[heresmike]

Fish can usually go many days w/o eating.... a week or more actually. I would be a little concerned with the baby guppies though .... seems like newborns should eat quite regularly.

So is that Yes or No. Do I feed them tonight. Last fed this morning

 

[heresmike]

If it weren't for the newborns, I'd say no need to feed 'til tomorrow. But if I were you, I'd feed them sparingly, and make sure the newborns get some. .25 for nitrites isn't that high, and you're on top of the water changes, so I think a little food will be OK.

Thanks everso much 'heresmike'. I felt that a little would be right, I just needed to hear someone else say so. Thanks again.

I'll go give a little now.
