1st my FH wouldnt eat chingmix. So i tried starving him for 3 days. still wont eat them. so i tried to mix it with chiclid gold which he loves. then he eats a bunch at a time then spits them all out. so i starved him for another 2 days. and tried to give it to himm again. now he picks out the chingmix and only eats the chiclid gold. so i got grand sumo. he puts a bunch like 6 in his mouth and spits them all out then gets more and keeps doing this for about 2 mins. then he finally eats them! can i crush pellets together and give him a powdered mix of the two or jus give up on chingmix? He's about 3-3.5"s..
 
I would starve him until he finally eats the Chingmix. I had to do this with a few of my fish. Just offer him a few pellets at a time until he decides he wants the eat them...........
 
if he'll finally eat them after spitting them ina nd out for a few minutes, it sounds like it may be too hard at first. try soaking the pellets in a small cup of tank water for a minute or two prior to adding to the tank and see what happens.
