what do you plan on doing with those guys once they're full grown?
Sweet fish. Where did you pick them up? I'm looking for some for my 750g. Thanks.

Cool video. I used to take care of tarpon that i hand fed. Except these tarpon were at least 5 ft. in length and i had to dive to feed them. Whenever hungry, they would get in my face and i would flick some fish in front of them and they would snatch it right up. Tarpon are awesome animals, and i hope you have a plan for when they grow. If you don't have a plan, I can think of one. I really want to put some in a 300,000 gallon tank that i take care of.

Are the consumable (edible)? like fish by the foot (ie fruit by the foot)!

i doubt their edible as in worth it due to they look like they would be very bony.
