Will steel tweezers hurt my sunfish's teeth?

I would go with plastic tweezers. They are going to be a lot more gentle on your fish's mouth and teeth. Also, this thread is about feeding fish with tweezers, not avatars.

You could also go with PVC dipped tweezers.

Anyone know how durable plastic grabbers are gonna be? This guy's gonna get fairly large and I assume he'll be strong enough to break stuff.

PVC dipped steel tweezers will not break. They will also be gentle on the fish's mouth. He will not break or chip a tooth if he bites them.
