When I worked at the LFS, we used to get darters with the feeders often. Crayfish every once in a while. Once there was a tadpole and another time we got a bluegill in with them.

Gambusia affins, tons of Crays but i havent bought any yet. Gambusia holbrooki. Blue Channel Catfish, although he may have been on clean-up crew (he was about 5'' and a few months earlier there were 2 Sun Catfish in there.)

I found this guy a few weeks ago at an LFS I dont go to very often in the Ghost shrimp tank. It looks like a swamp darter. Sorry the pic is so bad but its a cell phone pic.

Rosy red/fathead minnows are called "feeder minnows" in almost every pet store or fish store. They are natives too! I would have got some for my coldwater tank if the feeder tank wasn't full of dead ones. They have a breeding tank right below the feeder tank for them i n my LFS.


Does that count?
