feeding them ghost shrimps

Not smart to feed ghost shrimp. Ghost shrimp will be on the glass, then when your aro tries to go for it, itll smash right into the glass.

true that happened to my baby jardini,it flew out the tank
 
I put a bag of ghost shrimp in my tank about 6 months ago. My RTG was about 7in though.
They all went to the bottom, the do a good job of cleaning. never seen my aro hit the glass because of one. It picked them off while on patrol, there are still a few in there because they breed.
You could say the same about most live food, feeders, chrickets etc.
When i put crickets in the tank i put about 15 in at a time. The RTG goes mental eating them, many of them swim to the corners to try and climb out, it just picks them off gently.
 
You are very lucky lol. I threw some in for my new retic to eat and ended up having 2 of my chilis lose barbells becuase of it. Maybe if you dont have bottom dwellers, they'll stay on the bottom, and your aro can pick em off.
