so the guy at the lfs i went to told me there easy to care for so far so good water temp is 82-84 like he said attempting to feed 3x's a day going between black worms and floating pellets so far no luck goin on day 3 WC everyday 20% no other tankmates anyone raised one this size? cause I have 3 in a 10 growout, once i get them on food there goin to a 20 then around 3 1/2 inches goin in to a 60 then around 5-7 inches then a 220, any tips ideas tricks would be much appreciated
 
Good luck, easy to care for maybe to someone that has properly researched caring and raising these fish. Can't always believe what someone says who is taking your money.

-Best first food is freeze dried blood worms. Feed 4-5x daily
-Chances of raising multiple together is very low, better have dividers or other tanks ready.
-Incredible jumpers at even this small size, better have tank top secured absolutely NO holes.
-Very fragile fish, no tankmates until 5-6" and then only select tankmates until 10-11"
 
Ive tried moths and small crickets for the small guys. I have good luck with dry pellets when blowing gently on the water to slowly push the food towards the babies
