Cut back to feeding every other day, most tropical fish don't need to eat every day.
Any leftover food needs to be removed from the tank water.

Food silt?
If there is any leftover food after feeding, you are overfeeding, which is never a good thing.

You should probably know, I like to be silly and don't take myself too seriously; if something I said sounds offensive, you can safely assume I was joking. Feel free to respond in kind, I'm pretty thick-skinned.
I'm a beginner and I'm here to learn, so if you see me doing something wrong, I'd like to hear about it please. That said I'm a huge nerd and I like to over-prepare, so unless it's obvious I haven't, you should take it I already did my research.
