I have a ton of them. I got a pair to breed for use as feeders. The problem is the dang things are survivors. My bichirs and catfish (with the exception of my gulper cat) would eat them but only reluctantly, and soon I had colonies of jewel cichlids in 3 of my 4 large tanks (that are in use). I came up with the brilliant idea of putting all the jewels into the 50 with my gulper, and for good measure I put in a striped raphael and a common plec to keep the eggs down (the plec normally resides in my 240, and would return when the jewel invasion died down). Well, the jewels would have none of it and beat the gulper down (unfortunately, it did not make it despite my best efforts). So now I have a tank of cichlids and no one to eat them.
So my question for you: what to put in the 50 to eat them? I would like a fish that doesn't get more than 12" long, doesn't cost an arm and a leg, and is actually available to purchase. I was thinking a wolf fish. Would that work?
