why pellets as a main diet?I would think fresh things would be better.I hardly ever feed my polys any pellets,They get massivoire one a week but most of the time they eat chopped shrimp,red worms,night crawlers,scallops,mussels,chopped white fish,frogs,and crickets.I mix all those ingredients together and freeze in ice cube trays:}

picture of 12+ inch sen please. thats is monster. When there was a thread asking about 12 inch sens, no one posted a picture (as far as I remember)

but I agree with MsMP... real food is my staple (live black worms, shrimp, or blood worms), pellets are my "im too lazy to get food out of the fridge" food.

I'd think 10 or 12". For now you could use sinking carnivore until then, pretty much same ingredients just smaller.
