My Feeder Tank

[mikcamjon]

Since you keep feeders, what do you feed these to?

Mostly these guys.

10", 6", and 5" jaguar
8" Oscar
And sometimes the convicts and jack dempsey will get some, if they are fast enough

There are more photos here

That's 5 star! But dude, goldies don't really need a heater unless your temps go below freezing...

I gaped at the FD Bloodworms and Tetracolor for a while...you feed THAT to your feeders?!

See post #6 in this thread about the heater. As for the food, I tried in my main tank, but the bloodworms go into the sump too fast. So it is extra food.

The fish seem to like them. It also gets the Oscar to move a little faster.

The fish mainly eat Hikari Gold and Staple, Omega One flakes, Aquadine flakes and sinking Hikari pellets. Occasionally they get shrimp, earthworms, and feeders.
