Yup, gd skimmer and good filteration plus media.

Food is another matter unless u can train them to consume MP

You can't give only FW feeders all the time.

Another way is to check with the LFS if it is "trained" to eat frozen foods or not before buying.. If not, even with good filteration the fish will die if there is no proper food in the long run..
