put five in yesterday...woke up before work and low and behold there's only four tetra left....my bichir and his little angelfish gang were looking guilty...and "MYSTERIOUSLY" he (the bichir) wasn't the slightest bit interested in food this morning...so he's obviously big enough to eat feeder fish...I think I'm going to get him some ghost shrimp....if I put 5 or so in would he eat them over time or do you think he'd just go wild and eat them in a night? I like the idea of having them around for ateast a little while to clean up debris....what do you guys think?
 
he will eat them all right away. best idea is a gravel vac to clean up waste.
