Feeding a dorado isn't an overy complicated process. These fish are very aggressive feeders who will normally readily take live, fillets, market shrimp or pellets. In the wild, a golden dorado of less than eight inches will have a mixed diet, feeding on both small fishes as well as crustaceans and insects, seeds and other detritus from the surface.

I don’t know anything about golden dorados, but would it be possible to keep one with South American cichlids in a 10 foot long aquarium, long term?

My other fish eat raw shrimp and tilapia, so eventually the dorado will also. Is there a point when their growth slows? As for tank size, I have a 210 (72"L x 24"W x 30"H) but I plan on upgrading in a year or two to a 900 (120"L x 48"W x 36"H).
