Hey, I'm new here. I've got a baby snapper (about 5" and I was wondering if anyone here has had any experience ordering rosy red minnows or any other feeder fish straight from hatcheries. I'm not feeding him exclusively minnows (I've got him on a diet of rosy reds, raw chicken/beef, reptomin, crickets, and mealworms, and soon i'll have some toadlets for him to hunt), but I was curious because I'll be getting a 5" Matamata sometime in the near future and their tastes, from what I understand, are much more discriminating. Big chain store can be somewhat unreliable sources for fish, as I'm sure some of you have come to know.

thanks!
