when i started mine they ate feeder fish then moved on to gold fish. and there success rate on catching them was about 90% they ambush so they stay there and mimic a branch and wait for the food to come to them but some times they swam around and grabed there food, and it looks cool because the fish are still swimming around in there belly for a few seconds so dont be alarmed it all right.when they bite there prey they rap around the fish ,the fish basicly swimms down there throet. i used to put 10 feeder fish in at a time when they got bigger i gave them gold fish about 2-6 but i also had a spare tank with a filter etc for the fish to live in until they become food. but you dont need a heater for that. the most impotant thing is your snakes are in good health - to keep them that way is for the fish to be in good health the snakes are nocturnal and do like to hide , when they get to a good size they should be pretty hardy . they are a snake just to look at and if every thing is fine they should live a long time.
