hey guys I'm thinking about converting my army to start eating frozen foods, i have a lot of sallys silversides(the thiaminase free kind) but I've read that silversides and smelt cause early death and such, and most of the successful armatus keepers feed tilapia fillets stuffed with pellets, so should i get silversides,tilapia, or stick to feeders until the 12 inch mark or so? If tilapia, where do you find it? And how much is it roughly. any help is very greatly appreciated.
 
I feed mine a rotation of different seafood,when one thing runs out I get something else...tilapia,raw shrimp,catfish,cut up sunfish,sometimes whiting as it can get messy in the water,and smelt with the occasional pinky mouse for good measure.
