What do you feed your TSN?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
TSN is not eating market shrimp or frozen silversides. What do you think I should do?

I am planning to buy some feeder tommorow but I want it to eat other things also. It was hunting my Silver Dollars in my other tank.
 
while mine was still with us, any thing meet wouldnt touch pellets and loved live but would suffice for any meet

try worms if he isnt eating get them to drop right in front of his face and if that dosent work than try kill and turn off the light for a while. turn the light back on and see if he has a gut
 
dont feed for a week or so-wait for it to patrol near the surface and try again-if you are using shell-on shrimp split the shell so more flavour gets into the water.

never starve your fish...feed it some qt'd feeders...then as it gets some size introduce the other foods...during a normal feed..drop one fish in to get it exited then it will strike the next thing you put infront of its face...do this a few times and wean the feeders out...to give as a treat...

i feed mine beefheart, white larvea, flakes, pellets, market shrimp. never ate anything live, and it will stay that way, on purpose.
