Thanks guys!

How big is your scombs? I have had mine a few months now cracking little fish

I bought both at the same time. the Scomberoides and the red tail are both about 6”.
been trying to get them off live and so far after starving them since nov 2nd, the red tail finally started eating tilapia filet This week. The scomberoides is interested and swims up to it but hasn’t taken it yet. Stubborn fish. Lol

yet theyre a pain. Once they take it once they go non stop

In the 35 years of fish keeping I’ve never had a fish go 30 days without eating
