Green Terror eating Feeder Fish

The Green Terror already ate several fish after we dumped a bag of feeder fish in the tank.

This clip is the Green Terror casually drifting over to a schooled group of rosies.

In a blink of an eye, the Green Terror attacks, and eats another fish.

Check out his beautiful colors. He sure is a healthy fish.

hey i noticed that you also have a convict in with the green terror. i was wondering how they get along? does the convict get enough to eat? do they fight? or anything else i should know? was thinking of getting one of each, also if i get a male GT (because they're more colorful) does it matter if the convict is male or female? thanks for any info

[shimsand]

Yes. They do fight occasionally. It's a very tense environment for them. Since the video was taken, the Green Terror died. So the tank now just contains a Pleco and 2 convicts. It's much more peaceful.

if any of you people actually bothered to take the time to research your fish and their feeding preferences and practices you would know that in captivity the practice of using feeder fish is deemed to be unnecessary and in fact potentially harmful. When one type of fish only is fed (goldfish for example) your pet fish runs a high risk of vitamin deficiencies for a start. The green terror is omnivorous and therefore can be happily and healthily kept in captivity without the need for feeder fish.

fyi, I don't feed them feeder fish exclusively. Their diet consists of pellets, and feeder fish.

I had a small Green Terror but my adult Fire Mouth beat him to shit. He died this morning. I am going to get another and raise him in a separate tank.
