i agree 100% with you there...my guys are spoiled, i just recently weened my pbass off of feeders and onto shrimp, and an occasional night crawler. but still no pellets, although im secretly stuffing massivore pellets into the shrimp, but thats on the DL.. lol but yea between my pbass, my gar, my plecos, my clown loaches, and the rest i spend more a month on them then i do on myself..
