Nice How long have you had those? Was it hard to get then eat pellets?

Nice How long have you had those? Was it hard to get then eat pellets?

I've had em about 3 weeks now. It was super easy getting them to eat pellets, since they are hatchery fish, they were raised eating them. They have never seen bloodworms til i got them and they knew exactly what to do and what they were when i put em in the tank.

BTW- I like your sig

have you got a bigger tank for them when they get bigger? we've got rainbows here that get up to 20 pounds.

 

[Mr.Geoff]

Nope, I dont really plan on them to get much bigger then 12" or so in this setup. Plus I'd be amazed with if they even live that long. Average span of rainbows in these parts is only about 3 years. They wont grow THAT fast with me

nice fish, and I like the futurama quote too...thats my fav episode.

 

[Owain4]

haha crazy. rainbow trout here are bloody monsters!! some guy caught the world record one here a few years ago 48 pounds!!.

 

[Mr.Geoff]

yeah rainbows in these parts dont get anywhere close to that size. 12lbs is about the biggest for here and the hatchery these guys came from the biggest they have ever raised i think is 10-12 pound range, but most get to about 3.

im glad someone gets the Futurama quote, its one of my favorite episodes as well

 

[silverox]

wow thats cool. thats how my Congo tetras act when i put live house flies in my tank

 

[gangster]

Man that is cool....super feeding frenzy! NIce tank layout.
