How do you feed your rope fish?

[PunkRock050]

I just got one of these things like a week or so ago, and since then I have been putting some live guppies in the tank and they just keep disappearing. I had about 15 or so in there, and 3 or 4 days later I noticed they were all gone and the rope fish had a lot of bulges in him lol. Is it bad to leave that many guppies in there with him at one time, or should I put 1 or two in a day? He gobbles these things up like candy.

i've kepy many ropefish in the past and i can tell you that they will eat til they burst!!
some good advice for you would be to get them on dried foods mine loved freeze dried krill,anykind of pellets and they'll even eat flake food.
oh!! btw-make sure you seal any holes/opening on your tank lid(they'r jumpers)i've lost 3 ropefish that way and it suck!!

How do you get them to eat that stuff? I have some krill for them. Do you just stick it down by its face?
