They can go in the larger tank when they are too big to fit in the other fish' mouths. As for the food I had fry and fed them crushed up fry and hard boiled egg yolk until they were about 1-1.5cm long. Then they went on to big crushed up tropical fish flakes and then just normal tropical fish flakes and they were healithy.
