TSN feeding

[jah29]

i got a 5in TSN about 3 weeks ago and currently have him in my 55g. I tried catfish pellets, bloodworms, krill, and silversides and he wont eat or even achknowledge any of it.. After watching him not eat anything for about 2 weeks i finally went out and got feeder fish to see if he would eat them, and sure enough he went crazy on them and ate about 20 roseys in a day..

how do i get him to eat other foods? i know that feeders arnt a great diet and i dont want to have to be buying them every few days.

Prawn, fish meat etc may be worth a go, my tsn lives for them.

He will eat anything once he has settled in, but I would try feeding raw shrimp / prawn for now.

Try feeding when the tank lights are off, as the catfish is nocturnal.
