you should only feed it once a day unless it gets really huge (like mine did) and if it gets huge you should feed it atleast twice a day

Goldfish should not be fed everyday, goldfish do not have stomaches and have a very poor digestive system....when they eat this means the food will just pass straight through and of course will leave its back end into the water. They are basically swiming around in their toilet.

They may seem gutsy but they will eat and eat as much as you give them. This will then contaminate the water and may kill your fish.

Goldfish can go 2 weeks without feeding.....so feeding them everyday is way to much, especially if the tank is small. Feed them every other day at the most.

You should feed your goldfish as much as they can eat in 2 to 3 minutes twice per day; you will be able to know the exact amount they need each time after a few days.
you should feed gold and feeder fish twice a day, with small amount. Or you can feed them a large portion once a day, I recommend you feed them twice

you should really feed the gold fish once daily but can actually go for a day without food although i feed mine a pinch of fish food twice daily once in the early morning and once mid afternoon hope this helps.

remember goldfish can eat food until the point that they're dead so always remember to not over or under feed your goldfish.

For one small goldfish just 1 flake of goldfish food every two to three days is enough because if you over feed him/her he/she will die.
