Default I made my crossback stupid?

Bought a crossback at about 4 inches. Placed in a semi landscape tank with friends including loaches, cories, tetras, pleco. There are even a few Yamato that I failed to remove.

Growing up with friends, it will only eat pallets and worms. Put in Bull frogs or gold fishes all no eat. Throw in live prawns aLso no eat.

Want to introduce variety also difficult.

Now 14 inches still so friendly with companions and new friends.

Almost turned vegetarian. Big problem.

That is actually good news. You can add some fishes together with it. How nice.

Bro, you are lucky. My previous Xback also dont take feeder fish even at 20 inch, only take SW and sometime MP.

So I always can buy fish at a small size to keep, I had kept 2 tiger fish, 2 SMBK from small size to big, also tried keep a dozen of black widow tetra with him without problem, angel fish, discus and silver dollar all bought at around 2-3 inch, no issue.

Only 1 fish he dont like, betta, I tried (a couple of times) putting a betta in, he will eat it, other fishes not much issue..
