What size tank and what do you feed if I might ask?

Tank size 180 gal. Foods are tilapia,smelt, bottom dwelling tablets from aqeon, algae disc from omega 1,and when available after a heavy rainstorm earthworms!

I bet they tear the worms up. I can't wait to get mine. I'm hoping this weekend.

What is smelt? DO the things you feed them help them grow? how often a day do you feed them? twice?

 

[tlindsey]

Smelt are from a small family of fish that are structed like a miniature trout.

I feed all fish in the 180 gal. every other day. I alternate frozen and dry for each particular day.

Ok so no ornate yet. But I did get a sene at the Lfs today. He's 6-7 inches and fat. I put him in the tank and le him chill far a few hours then dropped the leftover bloodworm from feeding the betas in with him and saw him eat. He then proceeded after the lights got turned off to swimm like a mad fish around the tank. Really hoping that's a good thing. Will post some pics when I get them.
