umm, so far the babies are not eating anything else but live feeder fish.
so far, I've tried frozen krill, live black worms and fresh cut shrimp.
stubborn bastards.

The LFS close to me wants me to buy one of the 4 at the store when I get my big tank going. I want one but at the same time I dont want to loose more fish to them then I have to. It was suggested I send it to the the zoo when it out grows the tank 
Not a bad price ether only $65 canadian

Good luck getting them to eat dead foods! I took me sooo long with my first one, but once one eats prepared foods the others should soon follow. May put a small fish in there that won't get eaten ,but will take prepared foods. Once the perch see this ,it might make it easier to convert them.

with the exception of my datnoid, everyone eats non live food.
I'll just have to be patient.
I finally got the dominant fish to eat live blackworms yesterday after 3 days of fasting.
I hope the other three will follow in soon.
