All tanks are unheated. None of these guys have ever eaten pellets either, only live and frozen foods.
these are fry from the white male I sold in the picture where I'm holding the fish. There are 8 of these in a 60 gallon. So far I have two pairs and one pair has successfully spawned. These are grandkids of my big pair. I'm gonna pull the fry from the next breeding to so what the fourth generation will look like.
forgot to update these guys they are over 6 years old male is over 16 inches. They are currently in a 5 foot 120 gallon. They made the 2 hour drive to the new house in totes without oxygen. They stayed in totes with air stones for over a week with no problem. They are still in a unheated tank that can drop to low 70s at night. Feeding on earthworms, night crawlers, frozen blood worms, freeze dried krill and live blackworms. They have never had pellets or veggies.
