Cichla grow out tank

[gangster]

If you need em on pellets do this....

Take a cube of frozen blood worms. Thaw them out. Drain the liquid. Take the pellets of your choice and crush them up. The stinkier the better. Put them in the bw and mix em up into a paste. Feed w/ a spoon a little at a time so the mixture doesnt hit the bottom of the tank. WIth a big group or once they get used to it they will hammer it right off the spoon. Every few days add more pellets. Eventually they will be eating strictly pellets.

^^^^Make this a sticky already!
