    Trout, I just got one today and need to cut it up and try it.

    My source of guppies just isn't making it and the fish tank I set up for mollies won't be producing for at least 6 months.

    I have tried NC , salmon and guppies and the only thing so for is the guppies. I was talking with a good friend who knows nothing of snakes and suggested catfish. Anyone tried this with any success?

    Re: My new eastern Black Necks have arrived!

    One of mine took a guppy this morning. YES!

    Now if I can just get the other one on them I will be a happy camper.

    I just weighed them.. one was 4 grams and the other 6 grams. I am used to my Boas which start around 50-100 grams.

    I no longer know which is the female (perhaps the larger one?) but I will have plenty of time to figure that out as they grow.

    I have set up a 20 gallon with 20 guppies. I am feeding off and replacing the males for now until the fry get large enough to feed off.. I figure in a 2-3 months I will have enough to supply the needs of my pair until they are ready to convert to pinkies.
