Ropefish DO / WILL eat Neon tetras. You have been warned.
I feed my ropefish regularly, either bloodworms or mealworms. Yet, still, I wake up some mornings, 1 Neon tetra short from the day before. No, debris from a ravaged corpse, not stuck to my skimmer, not in my tank anywhere. My other fish, are not capable of eating one whole (with the exception of Houdini, my ropefish). Looks like I just bought a school of expensive (in terms of a fish meal that runs $2 a day) snacks for Houdini.
Sucks, I really liked my mini school of neons. Had 8 to begin with, down to 2. :mad2: But I like Houdini more, and don't have any other tanks for the neons.
