Hi guys.
I have 2 o's 5inches or so.
im currently feeding TetraChilclid stics,bloodworms ,mealworms im breading,earthworms(we have a large fruitfull garden),and once in a while convict baby if one suvives the previous generation cons.

I have a 25,15 and 10gal tank.
I would like to breed enough either cons or guppies or both to be able to feed my oscars a few feeders once a week(only as a treat and to keep them sharp)

What would u suggest i do to breed successfully.(Add tanks not larger than 25).When to seperat fry and when to feed them ec.

I would go with guppies in the 25G because they're gonna multiply like crazy. Go with 1 male to every 3 females.........

When we had our live-only puffer, we would get a few dozen livebearers they sold as feeders. Usually they were mosquito fish, or guppies. After a few weeks we would have a constant supply, and then eventually more would come in as breeders and as we needed to thin out the breeding herd, those would be dinner too.
