3 new indos

[sma]

Just got my first dats a couple days ago. 3 1.5" indos.They go crazy over frozen bloodworms but will not touch anything else. Should i keep feeding them the bloodworms or should i starve them a bit and get them to eat fd krill and mkt shrimp?

dont think your going to find market shrimp that small to feed. Try frozen plankton

I dont see why you would have to put the market shrimp in whole,I get my fish on peices of market shrimp as small as 1-2".I'm about to order me some dats and market shrimp is definately going to be a big part of their diet from an early age,nightcrawlers as well (again,small peices).

well i been cutting up the mkt shrimp to bite size pieces

At that size if they are eating something and eating well then why change now? Wait until that and bigger and stronger to start thinking about starving them.

yeah never starve babies

Keep going with bloodworms, and maybe brine shrimp. I have 21 that size, and they chow down on blood worms and brine.

They started eating mkt shrimp without starving them. I now feed them shrimp, blood worms and brine shrimp. I want them to start taking FD krill now. Thnks for the help.
