Live food for mollies and your Hatchet? Not really needed but you could try freeze-dried brine shrimp and bloodworms (not fresh). If you check the product reviews page under "Food", you can check it out before purchasing. Not expensive at all.

What's the styrofoam box for?

Rudy, I have been using frozen food for my fish. The package I bought was about 8 dollars. there are 48 cubes in the one I bought, and since I don't have a ton of fish, I cut each cube in half and put the rest in the freezer for the next feeding. It has lasted a LONG time. There are all kinds of different types in the pack I got so variety is no problem. And the fish love it!

well i wasthinking BABYbrine shrimp how big do those get

cause i am still getting more fish for my tank tho

Live Brine shrimp are more trouble than they're worth IMO. They can be carriers of ich and other parasites.

Freeze-dried is a much better option.
