methods to convert fish to pellets?

[keonigt]

what methods do you guys use to convert your fish to pellets?

i currently have two 1.5 inch dats and im trying to convert them and they are currently eating frozen bloodworms.

Basically, I waited a couple of days without feeding my cats, then I introduced the food that I wanted them to eat. That's how I get all of my fish to eat pellets or silversides..

For more difficult fish like Dats and Pbass, lot's of patient fish keepers have luck with this method:

What i did was feed them frozen foods (mysis, brine, BW) for around 3 weeks, than started to marinate the food in the frozen food "juice" and than after the pellets were soggy like the frozen food is, i threw them in. they accepted them the first try. Good luck!! Get them nice and fat on frozen food first though.

my dats are at 1.5 inches and i starved them for about a week already. should i get them bigger and then convert or should i keep trying to feed them pellets?

or should i keep them on frozen bloodworms for 3 weeks then move on to pellets and starve?
