My husband fed the fish, and then i did and neither of us realised that the other had done it, and now we have 6 fish looking very very very stuffed... Is there anything we can do to stop them from dying??

Are they swimming or just at the top of the tank the whole time? What fish are they?

theyre just sitting at the top of the tank

and theyre guppies

I doubt they'd stuff themselves until it kills them, just give them some time to digest it.

on that note...

how often would be suffient for feeding?

They'll probably be OK. Don't feed them for a few days

and, all things being equal, they should be fine. A couple of

extra water changes and maybe some salt in the water and

everything should be both 'hunky' and 'dory'.

Small amounts of food at regular intervals are good. I'm mean

and only feed most of my fish once a day. They'd be happier

(and grow faster) with smaller amounts of food, more often. I

use only live foods (for all but my community tank) as so have

a bigger buffer since it doesn't go off so soon...

I'll b surprise if they keel over n die Myst..

u could try increasing aeration too as low O2 levels may result esp if u have a high stocking rate.
