As far as feeders go you can feed em but and a huge but do not make that a staple only give feeders as a sort of treat... mine have feeders bout 6xs a month if that they eat pellets, fish fillets ranging from bonito trout catfish and tilipia, shrimp, and black worms they love those things

im goin to start them off in a 10 gal, wen they outgrow that then move them to a 55gal, then after that prolly either get a bigger tank or sell them. not sure yet im still thinkin

3 days to a week. The more there are the quicker they come to their senses.
