instence varables help

I am making a micro organisum game and I want it so that if a creachere smaller than the creachere that it tutches to be eaten and the bigger one to grow by the size of the smaller one and I tried this with instence varables but its not working. Do I use a global varable? Please help!

I dont think that the variable is the problem. Instance variables are perfect for this kind of stuff.
