How much food should I feed my baby goldfish? Too much or little?

Question

Hello, good afternoon! I have two baby goldfish, one is a black Moore, and the other is an oranda, I was curious on how much to feed them, currently I feed them once in the morning and once at night, and about five pellets each, I was curious as to is this is too little, too much, or just right? Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

Feed 2-3 times daily. It is important to avoid overfeeding goldfish as this can cause indigestion and/or contaminate the tank. In terms of the amount to feed, a good rule of thumb is to only feed an amount that the goldfish can consume in under two minutes or only feed as much as the size of the goldfish's eye. So, it sounds like you may be overfeeding them a bit......
