Getting retic onto pellets?!

[Jez1992]

Hi all from the UK. This is my first post on here so play nice!

I've got a 8 in male marble motoro and 6 in female retic that have had for several months.

Finally been able to get motoro onto pellets, am using hikari carnivore and worm soak method from the sticky, motoro is now eating them on their own, but struggling to get the retic onto them.

Have starved them, soaked with prawn/work/ fish and stuffed them inside other stuff but she just won't budge!

Any ideas?!

Thanks in advance

when they are small they dont take to pellets as fast for some reason! Just give it more time!

Thanks will do. I'm refusing to give it anything else until it takes them so I'm sure it'll give in

Nice looking rays and welcome to MFK.
What is the retic eating now? I would be careful with starving a retic to get it onto pellets. You may lose that battle.

Thanks! She's currently eating anything I give her really except pellets! Mainly feed them Prawn, worms, mussels, chopped fish fillets.
