Juvenile aro can feed 2-3 times per day, adult aro can feed 1 time per day.

Reds can be alittle picky.. get them used to feed on a main diet..
For example.. mp as main diet,
Bf or sw once in a while..

As some bros also mentioned, for juvenile aros, u can feed 2-3times a day.. but of cos moderate amount..
U can try them on 2 feeds a day.. let them get used to the cycle on mp. Then introduce bf or sw after each feed like their treats. Of cos moderate amount during each feed.. if u pump them till stomach big big in the morning by the nite feed they haven digest, not hungry then they won't eat.
Always feed mp first, after finish then give bf or sw..
If they dont take the mp from start of feed then don't give treat.. all of them in the comm mus take the mp.. if notice one or two dont take mp then dont give treat.
U have to see their eating patterns.. trial n error..

My comm takč almost everything I throw in. Sometimes I can feed them pellets, mp, sotong, fish and bf in a single feed.
Good luck and enjoy the process!!

Since tat day i feed them the bf,they dun take bf again maybe i really overfeed them till they r too full.
Need to starve them awhile then they will take back bf,temp stop first.
Now i giving them mp back,notice 3 out of 5 eat maybe another 2 still full.
Tat day i feed about 10+ bfs at a go.
Is it consider overfeed?
I have a comm of 5,average aro eat 2-3 bf.

I guess 2 to 3 bull frogs per feed should be suffice.
