Eu,

Sure you can.

That's what we all are doing for the time being, starts a little bit early; to gain 1-2 hour extra on feeding time. And your last meal of pallet can drag till 12pm, no worries.

Experiment with timing a little. Amount of BW vs timing.

I'm trying out small quantity but short timing (which is foul play and our sensei does not recommend it) to see if any improvement. So far, not very effective... Fish grew almost 1.5x the length within 4-5 days but belly small... pls refer to my pic. We need some width like CR ones

In order to make your fish have stronger appetite, tease them.....

the very first meal of the day, take out a quarter of cube and let it melt on a small plate.
Use toothpick pick up 4-5 worms and show around on top of the water for a few seconds at one spot; to lure them over. You'll notice these hungry fellas are getting more excited and you put the worms in. they'll fight and or cos, some may not able to eat any... nevermind... after you see those who ate and swollowed, wait for half a min or so.. repeat step one. Do this for a while and you notice these fella getting aggressive everytime you drop few worms in, you may drop in a bigger piece. let them finish and hunt for few minutes, drop another... end of the day, you'll notice your fish can eat faster and consume more...

Have fun,

Cheers.
