Yeah I think what he couldn't eat he would just try to kill, I'm going to be very wary of the dentistry I hear the jaws are quite powerful. What did you feed yours on?

I lucked out he was on pellets when I bought him, I've given him a couple feeders dont think I will again I don't wanna risk disease or parasites too much most expensive 2" fish I've ever bought haha he's getting a mixture of pellets. Did you find there appetite huge?
Agreed on discontinuing the feeders.The pellets should provide all the nutrition it needs.It's been quite a while but I don't recall mine being particularly greedy
Grabbed a couple photos at feeding time starting to get some tiny teeth, lasts for a while see how he grows! 
I feed mine on prawns, he seems to thrive on em. I'll put up some pics and video when I get home in a few days. Mine's been in a pond since he was about 6 inches. Can keep them with other fish as long as you've got plenty of structure and hiding places
He seems to love structure himself, if I get a monster set up might try some bigger tank mates. I'm thinking of making prawn the staple of his diet when he gets some more size, rather then throwing bags of pellets in there haha
to start with I fed him segments of prawn. If he's really small try peeling them. It's one of their natural foods in the wild
Little update and somewhat of a tank shot should of cleaned the glass. Very curious fish doesn't like foreign objects in front of the tank.
