When Do the Tiger Barbs Become Snacks?

Update:

Entering the final month of poll choice #1 and so far no Tiger Barbs have become snacks. Although Grovie did turn one of the Botias into lunch about two weeks ago.

I have also found a nice Senegal from Paradise Cove in Bellevue, NE. It is about 6" and very active that was added last night to replace a previous Oscar snack. Hopefully 6" is enough to keep the Oscars at bay.

Well since my last post my Tiger Barb population has gone from 17 to 11.
I have never seen the Oscars bothering the barbs so they must be having Midnight snacks.

I wonder how long the remaining 11 will last now.

Six left! Every time one disappears its during the night and I never see the Oscars showing any interest in them at all during the day.

I like this, survival of the fittest.

How large are the oscars now?

I haven't measured recently them but I'm guessing around the 9" mark.
