datnoid off feeders

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
is the one u got at twins aquarium the one who dont eat anything other than feeders? well i got my dat to get off feeders in 3 days. what i did was i just dropped peeled krill and he was hooked on it. maybe u should try it with shrimp. plus you might have to starve your fish until it gives in to what ever your trying to feed it say like pellets. good luck dude.
 
what I did was get my dats on nightcrawlers and then would drop in pellets immedietly after. at first they spit them out, but eventually they started eating them.
 
It all depends on the fish, I've had some take MP within a week, and some that have taken months and months, all from the same batch. Don't worry about the 5 days that is nothing.
 
The best way I have found is soaking the pellets in bloodworm juice, or prawn juice....(during defrost).... Or mix all 3 and leave to marinate for 2-3 hours.
keep doing this - eventually they give in.
Can take months.

That's a good idea. I'm gonna try that.
 
it took me weeks!!!! 1 dat started taking MP after 2 weeks, other one didnt eat anything for almost a month, until it stole a night crawler from my ray. now one would only eat MP and the other only eat night crawlers. havent given them a feeder since.
