i was wondering if anyone feeds their tegu fish? like live ones? i've seen a picture of a tegu drinking out of a bowl with a fish in it but was that also meant to be food ?

I would NOT suggest feeding ANYTHING goldfish. Feeder Goldfish are FILTHY animals.

Personally I feed my tegus fish that I catch on my frequent fishing trips. I feed them cut up trout (they love the heads best for some reason), which is definetly Chiefs favorite. I also catch tilipia by the HUNDREDS during the summer here and I feed them whole to my tegus - they gobble them up.

Fish probably aren't good as a staple but my tegus seem to relish them as a treat.

I have been feeding bait fish (shiners/smelts) ocassionally for variety.
