thats fine.. I would keep the daily feeding also... females have a lot of growing to do so I feed them everyday if they will eat until their are close to 4" but I feed lots of food when I feed them after that every 3 or so days, with males I dont slow down till their 3.5" but I give them all the will eat every other day or so and then drop off to every 3 or so days like the females...
