    What you expect him to do? I guess most breeders practice some form of culling, especially if the frys have some form of deformity. Personally I feel this is different from purchasing and feeding perfectly healthy fishes to other fishes.

    well, then again, it's quite sad to see perfectly healthy fish culled because they do not display the desired development breeders want. Say in a batch of 100s of luo han, only one makes it to the display tank.

    It would be interesting to see if LFS sell an ad hoc bag of different tetras as feeders. Imagine a planted community tank just for an arrowana.
