Hooked up my 55 Gal. aquarium today, plan on using it for bait. I'm going to keep suckers, and possibly some trout in it. My question is, what do I feed them?

i know creek chubs love velveeta! and trout like cheese also. i bet the suckers would eat it too. plus its cheap.

In the fall I will feed my sucker's nightcrawler's.
They only seem to eat them when the lid is covering the tank.

Goldfish flake keep them very happy. I have two tanks, the largest of the two is 100 gallons.

I keep Shiners and suckers, and a bluegill. The shiners and bluegill food,(crappie minnows) eat the goldfish flakes the day I put them in the tank.
