Just got my group of baby orinos in and was just wondering if anyone's had success weaning them onto pellets at such a young age? I don't want to starve them since they are so young...and how often do you guys feed? I've just been feeding them bloodworms 3-4 times a day but really wish I could get them onto pellets. I've looked at dieselmack's sticky already but I'm not sure if I really want to use live guppies at the moment or anything of that sort because they might attract ick...any tips would be helpful!

if your using frozen bloodworms melt it together with crushed Pellets, mix and feed. Keep at it and they will take pellet whole eventually. Ive had success with this method, results vary from fish to fish. I had one Mono on pellets in 3days while the other took two weeks. Good Luck
