new born pups 3rd day not eating

[spotfin]

I will also add I have gotten all my pups to eat small pieces of night crawler first then onto shrimp. The longest I had to wait was 4 days. Never wanted to get them on live stuff like blackworms as I do not want to keep them on hand. I would rather the pups eat what the bigger rays eat.[/QUOTE]


X2. My recent hystrix pups took a week before they ate.

OK, so on day 5 female started taking food, today, on day 6, male started eating tubifex.
Thanks again for the help!

glad they started eating. I like most on here usually wait a few days. I do start them on blackworms though. Even though some say its hard to get them on other foods later, Ive found that its really not hard to get them on other foods later. Esp tilapia.
