    They are. Maybe even pellet food.

    I wonder what size tank they will need. Right now it’s a very large, and well-established tank. The only reason is because they needed a constant supply of pods. How are we going to figure out the tank size, now that we don’t have to worry about pods?

    Think decently sized, because they still have a high metabolism.

    Feeding it regularly will be worth it :)

    Oh, no doubt. I just think that even though they could stand a small tank psychologically that is just them because of their swimming habits and size, it would be a lot of work to do the water changes on a 10 gallon tank with one of them eating constantly.
