male and female wild ( was told my seller) got them from Googz (joe). only paid 100 for them its crazy and they are eating already n doing great have them in a 125 thats divided. they are eating bloodworms.shrimp.and earthworms. gonna stay more toward shrimp.bloodworms. and maybe even try pellets or some thing. any ideas. joe was keeping the temp at 70. and i got them at 83 right now n they are eating a lot. will post pics n video in a little my girlfriend is FLIPPING out... she hates fish...wish i could feed her to my gars =D
 
I would stay with earthworms and blackworms. I find shrimp too tough for them to chew when they are young. But if they take then well, its up to you.

BTW how big are they? pics?

search as far as the water temp, there are alot of different opinions on what is the best. I keep my at 82-84, everyone in my tank seems happy with that.
 
5-6inch.they shake like almost trash the chunk of shrimp so u cut it up smaller for them and they eat it up in second i took a video of it, my female took a chunk and swam around with it holding it in her mouth. ALSO right now she is swimming at the top almost try to swim out the top of the tank??? why is that ? should i maybe add some salt and stress coat ?

The pieces of shrimp in your pictures are still too big. Nice looking motoros.
 
yes i no the shrimp i shop up smaller. i threw in those chunks to see if they were interested.
