My wolffish. Got into a fight with a goby that was bigger then him. Goby didn't make it. It was ment to be food for a gar that's 25 inches at a friends house, should have know it wouldn't make it though the night. The crazy part I saw it happen.

I went into the room to get some car parts when I look over at my wolf who is like looking at me like why did u drop this thing in here, next thing I know, the goby nips his fin, then it was game on, I just sat there in aw, as the wolf just started beating him. The wolf was angled down, and the goby was pinned, wolf just keep going and going and going until the guts where out and the tank had a red hue on that side, thenn he went back to his spot, all. Trance around like that's right I'm the boss. Lol. The goby was 14 inchs caught on a worm lol. Wolf is barley 7 if even 7. He's a bad dude.

That's really not what I meant by feeding routine, but cool story! You got some pics of this big bad wolf?
 
Throw some slow sinking pellets in the tank and stand back. The only one I have to make sure gets their food is my common pleco which usually hides in a pot and i just drop a couple of algae waffers in the pot for him.
 
My feeding routine has changed a bit... I got my BGK and ENs eating pellets, so I am feeding bloodworms less. I am still hand feeding my eel of course, but he is getting much better about coming to the surface so I don't have to read into the nearly 2 foot deep tank.
 
I feed both my tanks once every 2nd day.

My native tank gets a bowl of either shrimp or whitebait. I have to hand feed my Bullrout.

My exotic tank gets cichlid pellets of different sizes(floating and sinking), algae discs, and I have to hand feed my gar and aro hikari sticks, darn dovii, jag, and RD try to pinch them all the time. It's their favourite, they get what they can, then go back to their food.
 
i feed every other day too. about 12 Hikari floating sticks for the 4 juvenile channa asiatica, and the juvenile aba aba in the other tank gets either a few sinking shrimp pellets, hikari floating sticks, or hikari carnivore every other day for variation :)
 
My africans get fed once in the morning, as well as my P. ansorgii. (He is in his own tank) I feed my fire eel either every other day or every two days. (live blackworms all you can eat buffet) And my baby Oscar gets fed twice a day.
