Tips for geting weight on them

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
powerfeedings is the best way....go for worms and try to get them to take shrimps and pellets...silversides and smelts are great too
 
ive always feed bloodworms til i get them fattened up. then try nitecrawlers, shrimp, etc

I have found red wrigglers multiply very fast. I use standard styro fish boxes with a hole in the bottom covered by mesh. For substrate I used potting soild, peat and a bit of sand (I just mixed till it looked good...). I fed the worms high quality fish flake. Before I knew it was I had worms everywhere! Funny thing is, the first time I did it, I wasnt even trying to breed them!

i need to try this i do not feed worms often do to the expense. it cost me like 4 dollars for a 30 ct.
 
Come on bruce, bloodworm is crap and wont do much. Get them on worms or mussells. Soak in garlic and that should get them to eat them. No bloodworm
 
if she aint that skinny start soaking freeze dried krill in the blood worms... after on krill go for market shrimps along with silversides....
