Large goldfish and fishing worms is what I feed mine. You can look for a wholesale bait supplier and buy fish by the lb . I do it all the time

hmmmm, never heard of any of these foods lol ... im feeding them the tetra carnivore jumbo sticks now, which are prolly about 5mm.... would be nice ot get something bigger in size, so i can feed them less and last longer, and they seem to like the food when it floats
