last week i added 20 feeder guppies for my 3.5inch scomb. never saw him eat any of them. not saying he didnt. i added 12 more today and most of them went to the top of the tank and just swam around, was kinda funny cause i was screaming,NO..GET OFF THE TOP!!!. I saw my 6 inch silver arow giving a few of them the eye ball. before they knew what hit them 8 of them were gone. thank god they figured out not to stay their. the rest went to the bottom. then wham, the payara got 2 of them.

just good to see that he is eating.

i dont what im gonna do about the pig of an arow.

after reading about feeder fish for about 2 hours i still havent determined what the best type of feeder is the best, with goldfish being the worst.

besides getting him off a live diet. what are the suggestions, unless guppies are sufficient.

i had plans for a feeder tank and it was quickly negated by the wife.
"arent 2 tanks enough,you not getting another tank"

the only other tank i have is a 20 gal goldfish tank for my son. i dont think its a good idea to mix feeder guppies and goldfish.

i have no problem getting live guppies and i know the lfs verywell. no problems with any disease. should that be good enough or am i asking for trouble.
