I have 2 3 inch freshwater Siberian sturgeon. They are doing very well from what I can see. The larger of the 2 seems like his fins are pointing upwards a little bit. Should I be concerned? The ph is around 7.2 and the temperature is about 77 degrees F. They are in a 55 gal aquarium right now with lots of oxygen going through it. My intentions are to get them to grow another 3-4 inches then I will release the sturgeon in my 5' outdoor pond next year.
Right now they are only eating frozen bloodworms. What else should I be feeding them?


Thanks in advance
Mike
