Finally got a system that works great for me to get my natives off live and on to frozen food. Bring the new native home to the aquarium and give him 3-5 days to settle in. Let him get used to seeing you and you feeding the other fish. I then go and net a few native minnows and feed the new fish these one at a time so he gets the idea of you feeding him. Wait 2-3 days after that feeding and then try your frozen feeding. This has worked for me on the last 8 fish that I have brought home 3 being LMB and another being a Sand bass the others were greens and longears. My froozen mix that my fish love.
