Matt, you're not making them more nutritious for the oscar, and, no offense, I have some doubts as to your ability in 'quarantining' them properly at this stage.
You're having enough problems with the 4 fish
plus oscar in a 50 gallon with a temperature you had to 'bring down' to 82 degrees and a nitrate reading over 80...focus on
that. Why even
bother with feeders right now...your priorities seem to be
waay out of whack if
that's your big fishkeeping 'issue' of the day. IMO all your energies should be utilized towards keeping your oscars healthy and
alive('cause living oscars are kinda what we're shooting for here), Not setting up a 'feeder' tank.
That being said, as to watching them get 'destroyed' (oh,
joy), I just hope as you mature as a fishkeeper you'll grow out of
that stage, and won't end up like those idiots on youtube feeding them live pinkies or big goldfish simply to get their 'jollies' out watching it.
