Feels like a chore more than a hobby.. and I'm not liking my electric bill ($360) which is now without tank heaters.. only gonna get higher.

I'm going to be keeping 3 tanks and the pond though.

As for what to feed. I feed them the same thing I feed the adults. As well as tropical flakes.

thats understandable..i only use a heater at night..water temp without heater will drop to 40 degrees..but thats y i use heater at night..with the heat during the day water temp stays at 76 so heater is unplugged during the day..i know what u mean for the electric bill..my bill was up $300 more a month when i had my 180g 60g and 55g going..thanks for all the help though bro..i have 2 that are berried now..i am sure the rest will fallow..

Might keep a rack for the crays.. it's all being debated right now.

I have to use heaters in winter or my water will get well below 30 in my basement.
