Fish is this setting are not being fed a practical diet despite being feed trained. The is endeavor is to provide my kids a little fun so we are providing insects in the form of meal worms and grass hoppers. Fish are fed to apparent satiation near end of day. I have popped them with a feed formulated for aquarium use. Feeding rate is modest to reduce turbidity. Some insects are clearly falling in although not at rates needed to promote conditioning for breeding. A night light of some sort my be used for that at some point.
