Is my fish big enough for feeder fish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
If they are eating frozen or prepared food, i would avoid using feeders rather than encourage it

+1 make sure they are taking other foods before you do. Especially the eel. I would do worms before the feeders. I had a young TT that I feed feeders an ghost shrimp right when I got him an it never took to anything else died bout month later

fortunately all your fish are long and skinny. that will let you use them as feeders for smaller fish than you could if they had a different body shape.
how big are the fish that you are going to try and feed them to? the knife may be a bit of a problem for some, but the eel and rope fish should slurp down like spaghetti.
 
i would definitly not feed feeder fish to fish that have been nicely established at eating pellets and other manufactured food.. you will be introducing disease....and less nutrition.. and also big chance they won't eat the dry food anymore..Be happy everyone is doing so well.. and don't tempt fate.. if it isn't broke don't fix it... etc etc
