These guys need water that us 75-80 degrees (F). Make sure you have a filter that is circulating the water past a heater set for the right temps. For proper care in indoor set-ups the heater should be considered as important an item as the tank. If the temps. are already correct in your set-up please excuse my ranting.

:I got my Florida Common Snapper(juvenile) a dozen rosy reds(food) and 2 feeder goldfish(to clean his tank of course)3 days and he just sits in the corner of the tank now. I saw him snap at one 3 days when i first put them in but, that's it. I've given him rosy reds before and he ate them but, I've never put some many in at one time. I'm wondering if maybe this is stressing him out or just making him uncomfortable. I'm thinking of taking some out but, was just wondering what everyone thought. Thnaks.
