Answer by Alwayscheerful(414) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since you are feeding it at 200 grams every 30 seconds, you can say that you feed it 400 grams every minute.
There are 60 minutes in an hour and 1000 grams in 1 kilogram.
That means you are feeding it kilograms every minute.

That means you will be feeding it 24 kilograms an hour.
Hope this helps!
