My fish(down in my sig) have only been on pellets mostly with a one time feeder treat and today I decided to give them some frozen krill as a treat. I drop some in and they just look at it as it slowly sinks towards the bottom of the tank. Should I keep on trying daily until they bite?
Is this weird??

I see, well just curious if others have experienced this. I thought they would be crazy over it rather than a bleh reaction.
They're probably used to eating pellets. Just keep trying. Mine didn't eat krill the first time too.

i had the same problem trying to get my catfish and gar(who had been trained to eat fish fillets and shrimp and gets a bluegill/crappie fillet a day) on to tilapia, i guess it was the smell or texture of it. my cats eat it now but my gar will only eat sunfish and shrimp.
Starve them a couple days and THEN try...(might sound a little cruel but works...)

Ive tried this last week and they still wont. They didnt eat for about a week like two weeks ago before I moved. I tried it once I set back up their they still dont eat it.

Thanks for all the advice guys! My GTs actually have some fry swimming around right now, so I probably won't try starving them until the fry's health is secure. I definitely will keep feeding them the frozen krill once in a while and hope for the best
