Jardini pellet training

[dannyny]

Feed only pellets nothing else. If the fish is healthy, it will eventually get hungry enoungh to eat the pellets. You just can't give in.

its hard for me to not feed them. i think they are hungry.

Your jardini will NEVER convert to pellets when feeders keep being fed to the tank. Stop the feeders altogether and start out with freshwater fish fillets and any kind of frozen raw shrimps that you can find at grocery stores. I never have TSN but I think it should have no problem feeding on fish fillets and shrimps.

thanks i will try shrimp next

[dannyny]

I just saw a 240 for free on CL but I didnt have room for it Just offer pellet and they will take with time

 

[bassguy]

only offer pellets and they will give in. they both can go with out food for quite some time, so don't think they will starve.
