Keeping Predatory Fish

Keeping predatory fish in an aquarium can be very entertaining! Predator fish are fish that naturally  survive on hunting for meals, fish with carnivorous attitudes!  Keeping fish that live in such a way can be amusing to watch how fish naturally survive, however, you need to make sure that their appetite  is controlled. Predatory fish tend to be more aggressive due to their want to eat, so care for them is very important!

Most people when its come to housing predatory fish, prefer to feed their fish pellets foods that contain meatier ingredients. This tends to be the most recommended way because its more healthier and it can ease aggression!

Another option when feeding predatory fish is live food. Mostly all predatory fish will love to devourer live foods like worms, crickets, and other insects!  There also are feeder fish available to feed predatory fish; live smaller fish (commonly goldfish and minnows). When feeding your fish live food, it can cause more aggression in your tank. Also feeding your fish live fish may cause your fish to turn on each other! So live food will be accepted by your fish, but may have some negative results.

To top it all off, predatory fish can be great fish to keep. I wouldn't recommend them for beginners due to attitudes and appetites, but they  would make a great pet for experienced fish keepers.
