Then after last night, Im afraid she's going to strike at me again, but maybe its like you said, she's just looking for more food.

    They told us at the Petstore, that they were feeding her in separate container. But after reading from everyone here, that it was not necessary & could be more stressful taking her out to feed her. But now im starting to wonder...maybe she's just one of those I should feed in separate tank.

    I think i need to get a scale as well. I was hoping to hold off for a little while. But I think i saw on here that you can get one fairly cheap at Walmart? or someplace similar.
    If she's still hungry, then feeding her in a different tank is not going to solve that. There are literally hundreds of posts on this site debunking the tank aggression myth, so I won't try to divert this thread the same way. It simply sounds like she isn't getting as much to eat as she needs/wants. You absolutely need to get a scale to track her weight, and you can check the food size with it as well. My guess is her prey isn't big enough, so she's still hungry. You can get a cheap digital scale in the kitchen section at Walmart.
